FIGHTING WAS KEEN.— St. Louis. Dec. 

 1. — "The friendly competition" entered into 

 by the world's manufacturers at the Exposi- 

 tion has turned into a regular free-for-all fight, 

 and its fury has centered around the type- 

 writer award, which was finally decided today 

 when the Exposition officially awarded the 

 Oliver Typewriter the gold medal as a mark 

 of its practical superiority. Each exhibitor 

 presented a score of claims why he should get 

 honors as against all comers, and the compe- 

 tition became so keen that each firm felt the 

 entire standing of their business was tied up 

 in the receipt of the prized medal. All the 

 typewriter exhibitors being American, they 

 displayed a spirit of Yankee fight that made 

 decision hard. Some of them even went so 

 far as to anticipate results, and announced 

 several weeks ago that they had won in the 

 contest, though the official award was only 

 made today, and as a result the Oliver Type- 

 writer people are being congratulated on win- 

 ning a great victory. — Special to Chicago

 tail dealers were stocked up on $2.25 honey be- 

 fore the holidays, two cars of which were sold

Cincinnati, Feb. 17.— The demand for honey 

 at the present time is like business— frozen. 

 Nevertheless, we are looking forward to a 

 brighter future. We quote amber extracted 

 honey in barrels and cans at6fG6)^c, respect- 

 ively; white clover at 7@8c. 



The conditions of the comb honey market are 

 aught but encouraging, owing to the vast 

 amount of Western comb honey that is being 

 consigned at almost any price. We quote fancy 

 white at 12@13c, with but few sales. Beeswax, 

 27c. Thb Fkbd W. Muth Co.

 liberal, and include several lots of Hawaiiai 

 Island product. There is not much strictly 

 choice water-white honey offering. 



Nbw York, Feb. 8.— The market is decidedly 

 dull on comb honey and very little moving, 

 with plentiful supply. We quote: Fancy white
