Hagen.

Liquidation at Epi.

(From a Special Correspondent.) VILA, March 7.

BUSINESS is quiet in the New Heb rides as a result of the liquidation of Etablissement Hagen at Epi. Com petition with the liquidators is impos sible. Trade singlets are sold at 2/9 per dozen or 3d. each and silk shirts at 2/6, while other articles are being even more ruthlessly sacrificed.

Natives from different islands are flocking to Epi to get the bargains they can choose from a huge stock. The mar ket will be flooded for a long time and natives are getting all the money they can put their hands on to buy the cheap goods.
