PIrTsBURG, WEDNESDAY, January 13.
COUNTRY PRoDUCE-Jobbing Prices
Weather continues adverse to trade in this
line. At all events the movement is slow,
and prices, which have been down to hard
pan for weeks past, are practically un-
changed. Poultry is scarce and firm, and
the same is true of fancy butter. Supply OF
Elgin creamery butter of high grade is not
equal to demand, but common and low
grades are very dull. As to country but
ter, it is hard to sell at any price. Eggs are
slow stock, and our quotations are being
shaded for job lots Fruits and vegetables
are quiet at the same prices as have pre-
vailed since the year opened.

SLOW AND EASY.
Bankers Looking Forward to the Employ
ment of Idle Funds.

The demand for money from commercial
and manufacturing sources continues quite
moderate, but it is increasing, and by
the time the spring trade is fairly on will no
doubt come up to expectations. Such is the
indication, and unless the unexpected shall
happen there is no reasonable doubt of
actual employment for the bulk of the
finances now lying idle.
The movement at the city banks Yesterday
was rather slow and featureless The
weather was the bearish factor The dis
count rate was steady at per cent outside
capitalists being the only ones to shade.
Good real estate collateral was in demand

as to deter the shipment of Eastern funds

New YORK, February 20.-The stock
market to-day was quiet and dull and mar
rover than for any day during the last two
weeks, while displaying a decided weak
tone under pressure 10 sell for short Of the
account. The coal stocks were very quiet
but firm to strong but the Changers Welded
to attack because of the reports of probable
adverse legislation in Nebraska. Prices
halted toward the end Of the first hour, but
the issue OF the bank statement was the
signal for more vigorous assault on the
list, and Union Pacific and the Changers in
general were made the special points Of at
tack in connection with Chicago Gas. All
retired materially in the last few minutes,
and the market finally closed active and
weak at about the lowest prices of the day.
The final changes, however, are generally
fractional losses. Sales, 177,9SS shares.
