PROVISIONS provision mar
ket at home has been very steady with |
a fair demand from the consumptiye |
and export trade with liberal sales at |
the quotations. At the West and |
North the market has eased up slight !
y but the demand continuing coed |
here very little reaction of prices |
has occurred. The Cincinnati Price |
Current says of the western market
verse of that Of the : wack u Ii nirjccedlli}s. ij
This is accounted for partly by the |
natural reaction from the advance |
which tended to restrict c0nsumptive !
orders, and partly by the general an
ticipation that the offerings would be
large the last week Of the month, when |
the deliveries on contracts came to be
made, and consequently speculative
buyers have been holding OF. This
has resulted in decline Of ] to ! per
ID on bulk meats and bacon, but mess
pork and lard have been held TcTy
firmly, for stocks Of these articles are
in few hands and are so
light as to be easily controlled, and
although the demand for them has
been small, scarcely more than what IS
required for current consumption
holders seem to have full coniiIeHcc IN
values being sustained, with strong
hopes Of further advance. The for
eirn exports from the scahUETd ports
were considerably less than for the
corresponding week last year, aEI THIS
has also had somo Influence in thc
downward turn, but there is 4 stgon"
undertone to the market. aLd 1T even
small concessions from cHTT,I5 prices
there are buyers fur round lots of
meats, for the conf1e7:co uf t3.n trade
