PRICES IN BRITAIN.
EARLY BREAK PREDICTED. London, Oct, 28.

Retailers in a large way of business declare that the summer sales have been disappointing. A noteworthy instance which is evoking great interest is that of a first-class West End tailor, who is disposing of huge slocks of clothes by making to measure five-guinea suits which would recently have cost twelve guineas.
