COUNTRY PRODUCE - Jobbing prices -
AT the Monday sales of Elg1n creamery but
ter an advance of to 1 15c per pound was
established on high grades. This advance
will be due in this market the latter part of
the week. All grades below fancy are dull
and slow at former prices. Country butter
is as it has been for weeks past, drug on
the market, and low grades have only a
nominal value. Poultry is scarce and
chickens are firm, with an upward tendency.
The egg supply exceeds demand and mar
kets are weak. Potatoes, cabbage and, in
fact, all things in vegetable lines are slow,
with the exception of onions, which are
active and shade higher. Tropical fruits
are in improved demand. The advance in
price of Florida oranges is fully sustained
by sales. Present price is 81 per box above
price of couple of weeks ago.

A BAD BEGINNING

But Better Ending in the Grain Pit
Wheat Closes at the Top-Corn Ad.
rances Slowly All Day-Oats and Fro
visions Follow Suit.
CHICAGO-The holiday dullness which OF
late has marked the course of business in
about everything dealt in on the Board of
Trade was continued to-day Values have
been going downward for some time, and.
as usual on a declining market, the outside
public has lost interest. In wheat weak
ness accompanied the early dullness, and
lower figures were recorded. Nearly all the
news of the forenoon was discouraglng to
holders. The liquidation was general.
MAY opened unchanged at 9i3sc and slowly
sagged of to g37Sc Then the character OF
the news and the temper of the pit began TO
change 4 dispatch from New York said
there was good buying for export there ana
private advices from Paris said that the
market was stronger and advancing,
though public cables did not bear this out
announcement came later from domestic
sources. The result was lively cash wheat
business, and many fresh orders were re-
ceived to take advantage of the improved
shipping prospects. Prices advanced
sharply and closed about the top.
Corn was stronger. The receipts were
liberal, but the grading was very poor in
ieeu. The break yesterday started good
deal of covering by shorts, and as longs had
pretty well liquidated yesterday there was
not much for sale and prices hardened, ad-
vancin~ slowly all day and closing at the
top, making gain over yesterday of 2@5s
cent.
Oats were also decidedly stronger, record
ing an advance of 5S1l cent.
Hog products opened weak ana lower on
account of heavy receipts of live hogs at
the lea ding packing centers and the lower
prices for live hogs here. Later part of this
loss was recovered and the close shows no
marked changes from yesterdays last fis-
ureS

receipts have averaged daily more than 80
carloads Tor the past few weeks. with light
receipts of to-day, a stronger market was to
be expected. But instead OF strength we
note weakness. Oats are the weak factor of
trade, and prices are shade lower Buyers
and sellers are far apart in their views of
values With declining markets, the buyer
only contracts for immediate wants.
