While the butchers were taking their whack at the public, appar- ently secure in the knowledge that “investigating committees and offi- cialis” have reported that no prosecu- tions can lie, dealers in flour and sugar were also figuring on more profits. As a result four jumped an additional 10 cents to-day, and sugar is selling at a wholesale advance of one-fourth of a cent. Last Saturday 80,000 bags of sugar, welghing 8,000,000 pounds, were shipped to Greece by American sugar interests, The sale was made on August 18, after the shortage in sugar became known here.
