PEOEISioHS-FVr Provisions the market
J continues extremely dull and during the week
western styles OF meats have declined from ,.
cent to cent. The dullness WHICH set in at the
close OF the Old season has continued through
out the entire Northwest and Solth and the
general belief is that the present decline is hut
mere precedence OF further transactions.
The heavy yield of Pork throughout tho west
has causcd II feeling OF extreme caution among
buyers AMI their purchases are ONLY of such
qualities and quantities as will be required for
supplying their immediate wants. No,th C0ro-

The third cargo Of this season rived during the
earIv part OF the week. and sold from vessel at

kn5w;Cdgc that several cargoes are the
