Great Advance in Butter—Eggs and Cheese Also Higher. While indications in the local wholesale Produce market a week ago pointed to a general advance in butter, eggs and cheese, no one locked for-any such advance as has taken place since then in butter. Since then butter kas advanced 31-12 cents a pound, the price being today for the finest grade of Elgin creamery 22 cents. Then, too, the lower grades have advanced in sympathy. Cheese has advanced about a cent a pound, and eggs have advanced the same amount a dozen. Vegetables and fruits remain as about last reported, al- though peaches have about - disappeared. Apples are rather plentiful, as are grapes. Poultry and game are in good demand and fairly plentiful, with practically unchanged prices. Beef and other meats show little if any material change, small and neatly dressed hcgs being in steady demand. A well supplicd market with general firm- ness prevails. Butter today shows one of the sharpest advances noticed here for some time, hav- ing jumped about 31-2 cents a pound dur- ing the past week. Indeed, the market is nearly bare of fine, fresh goods, the shrink- age being unusually large, and prices are apt to still further advance unless there is an increase of supplies. The lower grades are in full sympathy with the high- est, and the market is unusually firm. The prices prevailing today are: Elgin extras, 22 cents a pound; choice, 20; firsts, ; seconds, 17; bakers’ choice stock, 13 to New York tubs, 17 to 18; dairy print, 17; western, 14; Maryland and Virginia creamery, 18; dairy packed, 14. Cheese has not only materially advanced over last week's marks, but a still further advance is predicted in the next few days. ‘Today’s prices: Full cream, large, 11 cents a pound; flats, 12, and ponys, 12 1-2. Eggs are quite firm today and a cent a dozen higher than last reported, with an upward tendency apparent. Their quality is not good, fresh goods being held by producers for higher prices. Today’s prices: Nearby fresh, 17 cents a dozen; western, 16 cents, and southern, 15 cents. A good demand for poultry is met by a fair supply, prices being practically un- canged: Live chickens, 10 to 11 cents a pound; old fowls, 8 to 9 cents a pound; ducks, 8 to 9 cents a pound, and geese, 6 to 7 cents a pound; live turkeys, 10 to 12. Game is more plentiful, but prices re- main about as last quoted: Venison, sad- Gle, per pound, 18 to 20 cents; whole deer, bucks, per pound, 8 to 10 cents; pheasants, #0 to 60 cents; rabbits, per dozen, $1 to $1.80; wild turkeys, per pound, 9 to 10 cents; woodcock, each, 40 to 50 cents.

There is another small colliery in the same province worked by one man with the assistance of a don- key. The next smallest colliery is in Eng- land, in the village of Nelson, in Lanca- shire.’ It is situated near the Colliers’ Arms, and affords employment for two mirers, father and son, who combine in themselves the positions of proprietors, ‘managers, miners and haulers of the un-- dertaking.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., October 15.— Acting under instructions from the Chinese legation in Washington, Fung Yung Heng, the Chinese consul here, began an active warfare on the highbinder headquarters, located in Chinatown, yesterday. For months there has been a war be- tween the rival societies, or Tongs, aris- ing out of a boycott between the Sam Yup and See Yup companies. Murders have been frequent, two occurring in one night about a week ago. In order to prevent a recurrence of these affairs, and to effec- tually stamp out the highbinder societies, the consul general issued his orders that all Piaces where they congregate should be closed. His order not being obeyed, a corps of men with axes and hammers yesterday began the work of destruction. The Chinese police, who have authority among their countrymen, were called into service. This body is a decidedly oriental organization and enforces the laws among the Chinese established by their own coun- trymen. ‘They are independent of the regu- lar police force. Descent was made early Wednesday morning upon several of the Tong head- quarters in Chinatown, and the highbinders there were driven out. Then the armed employes of the consul general started on their tour of destruction. Josses and punk sticks, pipes and idols, signs and banners, all went into one pile. Costly furniture was broken into kindling wood and rich hangings torn into shreds. From one place to another the destroyers passed, leaving nothing untouched. By nightfall there was not a highbinder head- quarters which had not been wrecked. The work of destruction was not suffi- ciently complete to satisfy the consul, who ordered another raid yesterday. The head- quarters of the See Yups were visited and more damage done. Then the Chinese Free Mason society, known as the Ping Kong Tong, was visited and completely cleaned out. 5 The raiders next turned their attention tc the Sing Hoy Gock, a sort of labor bureau and were cleaning it out when they found they had made a mistake, and got into the wrong place, the highbinder headquarters across the hall being the object of the raid- ers’ axes. The place was securely bolted and barred. Ferdinand Callendan, who was in charge of the raiding forces, was chased out of Chinatown by an excited mob. After going several blocks he jumped on a passing car, followed by a crowd of Chinese. A police- man saw him and placed him under arrest, but he was subsequently released. The police have been trying for months to break up the feud, but this action, taken by order of the Chinese minister and with- out the knowledge or aid of the regular au- thorities, will have a decided effect. Se Louisiana's High Hat Law. From the Savannah News. “The New Orleans newspapers are im- mensely pleased with the success of the anti-high hat law of that state. They say that a visit to the local theaters demon- strates the wisdom of the law, and shows that the ladies make a much more pleasing and attractive appearance when divested of their ponderous and objectionable head- gear. In this city, happily, such a law is not needed. The great majority of the la- dies who attend the theater here have fall- en in with the spirit of reform in the mat- ter of high theater hats, and either uncover their heads upon entering the house or wear small and pretty bonnets that do not interfere with anybody's view of the stage. There have been fewer big hats worn in the Savannah theater this season than probably in any other theater of its size and importance in the country. The ladies of this city have determined to show the men that they will not permit it to be said they are lacking in consideration for the comfort and enjoyment of others. Sure Indication.
