PRICES OF DRY GOODS HEARING BASIS OF 1918 Cost Immediately' Following Armistice Lowered, But is Now Going Back. INT)IANAPOLIS, Ind.. May 22 Dry goods prices, which declined from 20 to 45 per cent, during the three months Immediately following the signing of
the armistice, are rapidly getting back
to ineir position during the war. Ac
cording to Jobbers, prices fell follow-
Ing the armistice because of the prevailing opinion at that time that there
would be much unemployment and economic conditions generally would be unsettled. The decline, however, was not warranted by the cost of manufacture, It Is said, and prices now must go back to the position at that time. Brown and bleached muslins show an advance of to 1 cent. Ginghams and prints are steady with a rising tendency however. Dried Fruits Continue Advance Dried fruits continue . to advance, prunes ; showing gains of lc to 7c. Coffee prices, which have risen regularly daring the last three months, are eteady. Drug prices also are slightly stronger. Calomel Is up 7c a pound and glycerin Me. Epsom salts are down c. Prices of hides continue their rapid rise, and still higher shoe prices probably will-be the result. During the last two months prices of hides have advanced more than - 33 per cent, dealers say. Prices on all grades of hides show an advance, the largest on horse hides, which have advanced $2 on both the No. 1 and No. 2 grades. Writing On the hides and leather question Dun's review this week says: No Abatement of Boom No abatement of the boom In hides .md leather, which Is based largely on the prospect of a great demand from Europe, has been witnessed, and shoes become even more costly as the materials which enter into their manufacture keep on. soaring. The activity In leather is extending to lines heretofore mainly neglected, sheepskins r.ow participating in the movement, and some grades of upper leather are sold up so.closely that tanners name further advances in an effort to put a damper on fresh trading. With values of this commodity rising rapidlyand supplies of some descriptions decidedly meager, still higher footwear prices seem inevitable, and the chief problem of producers Is not now one of securing new orders, but rather of obtaining sufficient leather with which to meet their requirements. Shoe salesmen returning from the road report that business has run far beyond expectations, and most manufacturers now have about all the work they can comfortably handle.

AVIATOR HAWKER ? SET MANY RECORDS
SEW YORK, May 22 Harry G. Hawker, the first aviator to attempt a nonstop trans-Atlantic flight, is an Australian, twenty-seven years old. He began his career as a mechanic and arose to the rank of a flyer under the tutelage of Sopwith, one of the earliest British airmen. He first came Into, prominence October 24, 1912, when flying a Sopwith biplane designed after the pattern of the Wrights, he established a British record of eight hours and twenty-five minutes for a
duration flight and won the British
Michelin trophy for that year. In 1913, flying a Sopwith equipped with1 a Gnome motor, he established another British altitude record of 12,900 feet and on the same day carried aloft two passengers to a height of
10,600 feet Later he attained what was said at that time to be the world's altitude record 28,500 feet. During the war Hawker was engaged as an experimental flyer. , assisting In the development of Sopwith machines. In-1913 and 1914 Hawker made two attempts In a Sopwith to win the London Daily Mail prize of $25,000 for a flight around Great Britain. The first time he had to descend near Yarmouth because of illness and on the second occasion he met with a mishap near Dublin. Commander Grieve Is twenty-eight years old. He is a wireless expert and k meterologist as well as a flyer and for a time during the war commanded the cruiser Campania, mother ship of the. British air squadron with the grand fleet.

LIQUOR MAY BE STORED IN OHIO COLUMBUS, O.. May 22. Under a ruling by Attorney-General John G. Price, the possession, storing or exportation of intoxicating liquors will not be interdicted by the state of
Ohio by the terms of the constitutional prohibition amendment becoming effective May 27. The inquiry came from EaBt Liverpool, where it appears that dealers desire to ship liquor into Pennsylvania before July 1, when federal "war-time" prohibition becomes effective. Attorney-General Price says it is true that the possession and storage of liquor may be made the subject of legislation looking to the enforcement' of the prohibition amendment, but nothing has been enacted other than the provisions of the Crabbe bill, which has not taken effect yet. The saloon keepers of Ohio are entitled to no refund for May 25, the last day of the license year. The reason Is cited that they knew, when taking the licenses, that they were not entitled to refund for days on which saloons were closed by law. , ,
