WHOLESALER EXPLAINS
ADVANCE IN PRICES
PREDICTS MORE OF IT
Throwing some light upon the ad
vance In the prices of foodstuffs since
trip nnenlne of the European war is
a letter received by one of the lead
ing grocery houses from a wholesale
house. According to the letter, the
soaring of sugar is justified by the
fact that England, cut off from Ger
many, is drawing upon Cuba for her
hupplies. Further advances in the
price are predicted.
Speaking of food products In gen
eral, the wholesalers write that all
imported products are affected by
the war inasmuch as all shipping
from foreign ports are done in Eng

are subject to seizure. Many com- ed the Elgin National as the big '
panles are, consequently, instructins
their vessels to remain in neutral and
friendly ports- War risk Insurance
of from five to seven and a half per
cent and the added cost of transpor
tation Justify an Increase In the pri
ces of such products as currants,
peels, oils, Cross & Blackwell goods
etc.
Relative to the sugar market the
wholesalers have the following to
say: j
Sugars The supar situation la
slightly different. England consumes
approximately 15.000 tons per
month, which ordinarily is furnished
j by Germany. This source of supply;
! elm absolutely cut Off. she natural-,
. . nk.n,sh hpr stores from
Cuba. Actual sugars in England are
Relilnir today at $12 er cwt. and
'English importers are purchasing ev-
try available pound of Cuban sugar
ns'fast as it Is being offered, and have
even gone so far as to purchase re-
fined sugar from the New York re-
fineries to the extent of 1.800.000 to
2.000 000 bags. The effect of this ex- j
traordinary and unexpected demand
for sugar and the comparatively1
small supplies still available in Cuba)
have already doubled the cost o(
raws and refiners are unable to buy
raw sugar.- duty paid New York, for ,
less than $ 52 today. On this basis j
cur mined price snouia ne anove c
Portland, and that sugar has not
reached the level is due to the fact
that refiners are still working on
raws bought at the lower prices but
It seems Inevitable as soon as present
supplies ore exhausted that Sugar1
must advance still more, not due to
any cause traceable to either the Job
ber or the refiner, "but due to the fact
that sugars are urgently needed for
export, and supplies are entirely too
small to take care of this extra buy
ing pressure.
We give below statistics showing
shortage that may be expected pro

GRKAT ELGIN ROAD
RACE IS OX TODAY
ELGIN, 111., Aug. 21. The starter's'
pistol sent the star automobile pi-!
lots of the coutnry away today In the
first of the annual Elgin races, the
classic events In automobile circles
in the Middle West The course lay
over nearly nine miles of country
roads through the greatest dairying
country of the world and fringed by
great crowds of spectators who
swarmed into Elgin last night and
early today, from Chicago and sur-:
rounding cities. Around 36 laps the,
drivers will rush their cars for a to
tal distance of 303.21 miles.
Today's event for the Chicago Au
tomobile Club trophy and prizes
worth about 33500 sent a field of not
ed drivers away, but the Elgin Na-:
tional trophy race tomorrow will at-1
tract the larger crowd though the'
prize money offered Is about the'
, event in the Middle West racing and
It has held the larger share of in- i
tereat from year to year. j
Gil Anderson, who won last year's
Elgin National, was an entrant In to-j
day's race. He was one of the pop-1
ular favorites. Anderson arrived
here two weeks in advance of the
race, established the Stutz camp and
has engaged in daily workouts. Wis
hart and Pullen, the Mercedes stars,
were other early arrivals this year.
Further improvements to the
course this year has reduced the dan
ger of accidents to a minimum.
Course officials found last year that
by eliminating the dangerous 'hair
pin" turn they cot down the possi-
bllities of serious accidents and they
made other similar alterations this
year. The course was entirely resur-
laced; tne turns were covered witn
crushed stone and rolled and so
banked that only a slight lessening of
Peed will be necessary in taking the
most dangerous curves,
Drivers in this years races have
more prize money to look forward
to than In previous years. Cash prizes
of $100 to $200 heve been offered for
the fastest lap In eac hday's race and
ul nceasory companies have piled
offers for fastest time at certain
distances.
