The demoralized condition Of the 'specula-
tive markets had its effect on the sample
trade, and until late in the session there was
but little business and a very unsettled mar
ket. Every st ller had a set of prices of his
in effort get a uniform market
but they could get no bids at anything near
Mondays prices. Receipts were 5C2 cars
and - were shipped out. Sample tables
were loaded with more than enough to sup
ply the demand and the only question WAS
how low a point buyers would take hold.
There was some inquiry toward the close.
