in New Orleans, It would fall even lower
still than the rate to which it sunk yes
teTday, 3 75, IL 1t were not sustained 10
some extent by the late advance on
boats. Chickens have recovered
strength since the improved de.
mand, and fine hens commanded
81 so Eggs, strengthened by the same
influence, were better, quoting 26@2Sc.
Turkeys, when large and in good condi-
ton, are readily taken at full prices; ;
small and poor are taken on speculation
TO feed into condition for the Christmas
tables. Apples, IN consequence OF lib
eral arrivals, are heavy; fine sorts, how
ever, retain their quotations Potatoes

Offering in store al 81 IS; attempts to
obtain 81 50 barrel for some lots of
Ohio river prove failures. Cabbage,
fine and fresh, il selling at s. for hum
bred head. Onions droop and ara hard
to sell. Fresh beef is higher; sheep aud
hogs unchanged. Pork, both mess and
bulk, are lower; the following will give
some idea OF the state of the market:
The Cincinnati Enquirer, of WedDes.
Gay, reported: "There is q dull and
heavy market, with only a moderate de-
mand, but there is not much pressure to
sell" The Chicago Times, of Tuesday,
says: "Hog products were only mod.
erately active, and gradual shrinkage
in values wss submitted 70 all around.
Receipts Of hogs for the 'ast two dsys
was fair, and Ggry in the day
holders were 10Th TO accept any lower
figures than were current on Satur-
day, but up 70 eleven O'Clock there were
no purchases of consequence, and pack
ers, almost IS a unit, held Off and re-
fused TO tug. This c used holders TO
weaken, sud the weakness at the stock
yards permested the provision crowd
the r, suit being quite liberal offerings of
fu ure at lower prices. Even at the con-
cessions willingly offered by sellers, buy
ers we're slow TO take hold, and the days
transactions were comparatively light.
The great majority of our packers are in
shape to cut hogs freely, tut the bulk OF
the orders for product received here are
at prices which do not admit of the pay
ment of 7973c per pcund gross for the
raw material, and ii has really become
mOnotonouI paying 81 out and receiving
75c back; hence it is that yesterday
packers were not disposed to buy hogs
unless they could buy them st prices
warranted Dy the figures obtainable for
the manufactured product. There is a
very good order demand for meats from |
the south, but the purchases SO far indi-
cate that these buyers are purchasing |
only what is absolutely necessary TO |
meet immediate requirements. The for |
eign demand is good; that is, there is
product wanted, but the |
prices asked are very different from the |
prices bid, hence it is that our foreign |
Outgo on direct orders is small"
Quotations are for round lots, unless otherlOtse
ezpressed; for feed and produce, teUee rates. |
For small purchases rates are propOTtionGtely |
higher.
