CANDY. o How ft Is Made, and What It Is | Some of the Made Of. SOME INTERESTING FACTS CONCERNING SWEETS. ‘From the Boston Herald. The confectionery trade in this country, ‘which twenty years ago was comparatively un- Important, is fb-day a great branch of American industry. A few years ago it was necessary to send abroad for the best qualities of confec- tlonery; but now American manofacturers are exporting to the very foreign markets which formerly supplied us goods that cannot be ex- celled anywhere in the world. the finest kinds of sweets that this article is designed to treat. years ago the manufacture of low- Priced confectionery was begun in this city, and it has attained gigantic proportions. The product is familiarly termed by retail con- fectioners ~‘grocers’ candy,” as, toa great ex tent, it is retailed by grocers. Since these deal- ers have taken to selling it, the trade of the re- tail confectioners has suffered to a considerable extent. The grocer buys his goodsat prices vary- ing from 11 cents to 13 cents a pound, and re- tails them at from 14 te 18 centsa pound. Of course, a man depending solely on confectionery could not do business, and even pay his ex- penses, on such prices and profits. Are these cheap candies pure? is a question often asked. If glucose, grape sugar and terra alba are pure, these goods are: if they are an adulteration, then these goods are not pure. The present writer Temembers hearing of a contract made by a — firm for the delivery to them of a cer- in number of barrels of broken and mixed candy, at 10:¢ cents per pound. At the same time, granulated sugar (the kind all confection- ers use) was quoted at 105¢ cents by the 20-barrel (refiners’ lot.) How could the contract be-car- fied out and the manufacturer get a profit—or even his money back? Let us illustrate. Take, for instance, a 50-pound batch of “mixed pa.” IF MADE STRICTLY PURE the material would cost as follows, allowing the price of granulated sugar to be 10% cents, which will be a fair average: 50 pounds granulat. 18 Flavor (oly dora rte laet cs 35 Fire and shi Labor, at $2 per day Cost of candy.

It should not be understood that glucose is used tothe extent of half-and-half with sugar by all turers who use it, but this illustration + is given fos Sy show how these low-priced candies can be made and sold at such low fig- ures. When granulated sugar is worth 1034 or i egnts per pound, it must be clearly seen by any reasonable person that pure candy cannot de made and sold at retail for 123¢ cents yand. Gum drops. such as are usually sold at the above price at retail, are known by confec- tioners as “A. B."gum drops, and usually can be had for 734 to 8 cents per pound in eared lots.” These goods contain VERY LITTLE SUGAR @ gum arabic, the chief material used in the Production being starch. Most retail confec- tioners are now employing their own help and manufacturing at least two-thirds of the goods they sell. They find they can get up better styles, have their goods fresh made as often as they want them and in as smail quantities as demand requires. What candy may be stale is readily made over again in some other style, and they suffer no loss. About three years ago caramels were the great craze: every confec- tioner was either making or advertising cara- mels. But, like all goods. subject to freaks of fashion, these fell off, until now they only “average regular” with other styles and lemon, and almost punch, cream, raspberry, every kind known to the art of the confectioner. | found the man carefully planing each board.

In addition to the sentence of imprigonment with hardedabor the court ordered (hat the prisoner receive twenty lashes within two weeks after his committal and twenty more three months thereafter. The first twenty lashes were administered this forenoon, the cat-o’-nine- tails being the instrament used. At 10 o’clock the prisoner Chute was tied hand and foot to the triangle, the upper part of his body from the waist being bare with the exception of the neck, which was protected by a piece ot stiff canvas. The sentence of the court assigned to inflict the castigation stood ready, eat in hand. The ominous ‘‘One” of the sergeant on duty was followed by the stinging applica- tion of the nine-stranded knotted cords of the instrument of torture on the muscular shoulders of the prisoner. The flesh quivered slightly, and a suppressed moan gave evidence of the pain the man was suffering. After the infliction of the zeventh lash the prisoner exclaimed “My God! look down upon me.” At this stage blood the strokes fell at regular intervals, and the the seventh —— or not cannot be said, but no sign of the prisoner endured after the second exclama- tion. After the twenty lashes had been admin- istered Chute was untied and his back exam- ined by the doctor. The prisoner took from his mouth a lead tween his teeth while passing through the ordeal. Chute is quite a young man, beli twenty-two years of age, is about five fe inches in height, muscular, second-class normal-sehool certificate, and was considered a successful teacher. It appears that he detained one of his after dismissing the school, on the plea of re- missness in her studies, and that while alone with her he assaulted her as stated.

The distribution of goods continues’ large, and domestic buyers of raw materials of nearly all Kinds proceed in the "tareful, conservative manner which has characterized their buying eyer since the great boom two years ago. Manufactured goods of all kinds are sold to-day at abeut the same figures as a year ago, minus, In some few instances, slight declines brought about by fierce competition among manufacturers. But, ip several of the principal staples there has been an accretion to prices, of, at least, tormer firm fBgures have been maintained. This is especially true in the food staples, nearly all of them. Flour, already high enough before, has inereased in price om some grades 25 cents per barrel. Corn has gone upward 4 or 5 cents per bushel. Oats are higher, and potatoes are firm at prices which in former years would have been considered ,almost fabulous. Fresh beef is higher by per 100 than a week ago; in fact, the prices are such as to make dealers them; selves surprised. Dairy products have been maintained at the ve figures which have characterized the market for more than amonth. Pork is unusuaHy high. Suzar and molasses are above the figures of former seasons; rice is 16 per cent above the figuresof last season, and the whole grocery line is firm. Fruits, as a rule, both green and dried, are high. It is cost- ing from 12 to 15 per cent more to furnish our tables than it did a year ago, and yet to the laboring man comes the unwelcome sound of a general reduction in wages. Manufacturers are complaining that they can no longer produce is without some show of profit to them- selves,and,looking over their expense accounts, they naturally fall upon the cost of labor as the first item where A REDUCTION CAN BE MADE. Money is easier than usual in early Apri, and capital seems ready to flow in any direction where there is a reasonable show of profits. This feeling may be at the bottom of the recent rise in sthple products. The farmers of the grain producing sections have not been able to get to market, owing to the preyalence of mud, and hence the receipts of grain. and other food pro- ducts have been light. Grain speculators have seen the condition of affairs and have not been slow to take advantage of it, either to squeeze out the shorts, or to obtain control of as much grain as possible. Hence the boom in the grain Position, and the general rise in food staples. Our export trade is not to blame for it. On the contrary, the balance of trade comes very near being the other way. We have actually been importing some of the food staple, and until very recently little or no wheat or corn has been going abroad, by reason of higher prices in the American markets than in the other grain pro- ducing countries. j A change is probably not far off. Even the most sanguine grain speculators have little or no confidence in the market two months hence. Some of them admit that that even a month may work a great change. They are well aware that there is still grain enough in the west. Better roads will bring it forward; the increase in prices will act as a stimulus to the producers and holders of grain. Then the crop reports will soon be coming in. Good news is already re- ceived from the Pacific coast. From California, Oregon and Washington comes reports of ENCOURAGING OROP PROSPECTS. From the entire west and south, thus far, in- dications point to an abundant harvest. The New York Journal of Commerce has the follow- ing special crop report from Missouri: “There has been but little cold weather during the win- ter, a great deal of the time the wheat growing right along as it ordinarily does in March. The consequence is that much of it isin an unusu- ally advanced state for the season. Many farm- ers have been compelled to graze their wheat fields to keep back the too luxuriant growth, and upon some extraordinarily rich spots it is now so forward as to bein the boot. There never has been a better stand of wheat in Latay- ette county than the one which now covers the ground with its beautiful carpet of waving Bean and are on the list, Twenty Newfoundlands and eight berg- ‘Twenty-seven grayhounds add interest to the Fourteen states and Canada send 142 y, Daisy, Queen May, May There aré 158 imported and native a leet peir's Lizzie Lee, Prince Hal, St. Elmo 2d and .

The firm market for dairy products is also drawing near to a season when production will be abundant. The butter market is likely to decline within a few weeks, provided the general course of former seasons is to be carried out. Cheese may follow a little more slowly, but the summer decline is eure to come sooner or later. In the fresh beef market, if we were to give credit to what western cattle men have tosay, the posi- tion isstrengerfrom anactcal scareityof fat cattle. ‘No grass beef, they say, will be reeeived before July. But, even here, it is well known that it has taken some exertion on the part of the Chicago cattle trade to bring the supply down to figures where the market would begin to boom. Such very high prices will check the demand, and not many weeks hence it may ap- pear that there are cattle enough. The export demand for refrigerator beef will especially be checked by the figures now demanded, and this will work a it change in the beef market. In short, but for this export demand, the mar- ket would be flooded with eheap beef to-day. Last week there were actually no shipments of refrigerator beef from this port. Although the Liverpool market has advanced aligutly, the figures show no comparison with the asivai here. There is little doubt but what the boom in beef will be of short duration. oe eee JOHN POTTS REWARD. pain gave evidence of the torture builet which he had flattened be- only ten , but pale.
