CLOSING DOWN.
BUTCHERS SHORT OF SUPPLIES. By Telegraph.—Per Press Association. Wellington, Last Night. The following notice appeared to-day on the window of a butcher's shop in Tory Street: "This business will be 'closed for two months, o n account of the high prices of meat. Thanking my many customers for past support, etc." It is understood that the retail butchers have lately had more than one interview with who'letale suppliers, with a .view to securing a reduction in the wholesale prices, but that no concession —of a size, to be transferable to the public—is i n prospect. Meanwhile tinhigh prices i n the local market are cutting off their own trade, as the above notice and many other similar cases all tend to show.
