COUNTRY PRoDUCE-Jobbing Prices
The cold weather of the past few days has
had the effect OF stifening prices of eggs
Strictly fresh eggs are now &c per dozen
above prices which prevailed at the begin
ming of the week, and prospects are good
for still further advances if the cold weather
continues. The rise in Elgin creamery but
ter which took place at Elgin on Monday is
fully justified by events. Supply of fancy
stock in this market is light, and demand is
active at the advance. Country rolls are in
better request, and prices are a shade bet
ter. Poultry is in active demand, particu-
larly dressed chickens, the supply being
short of late. There is q better inquiry for
potatoes and onions, but prices fail to ad-
vance. Other vegetables and fruits Of all
kinds are quiet:

RATHER A DULL DAY.
A Dearth of War News Makes an Uniuter-
esting Grain Market-Bull. Turn Bears
for Time, but Final Declines Are Net
Very HEAVY

A Dearth of War News Makes an Uniuter-
es:ing Grain Market-Bull. Turn Bears
for a Time, but Final Declines Are Net
Very Heavy.
CRICAGo-Wheat was dull and weak at
the start this morning. There was no fresh
war news to stimulate it and cables
were rather easy, with domestic mar
kets tending downward. Speculation was
dull, with the offerings generous, and the
tone of trade was for time unmistakably
bearish. good many bulls of yesterday,
who had carried property over, notwlth-
standing yesterdays weakness, seemed to
feel they had made mistake, ana sold
freely to-day. The report of Secretary
Mohler, of the Kansas Board of AgIiculture,
estimating last years crop at 1900 OcO bush
els more than was estimated by the Govern
ment Statistician, and putin" the acreage
for next year at aiffncrease of .! per cent,
helped along the depression, as did private
cables quoting prices lower.
May opened unchanged at 9l54c, and
gradually sold off to 9l3sc; but at this point
the news became more encouraging. and the
market turned. Minneapolis reported more
export buving there with 50000bushels al
ready taken. Secretary Mohler, in an
answer to q private dispatch. denied the
statements attributed to him. Finally came
I3yd9StreetS renort showing a decrease on
both coasts for the last week of over IOO0,O09
bushels, and private cables also became
more favorable. For a time there was quite
a scramble to get back the wheat dumped
early and May rose easily to 92c. A large
amount of long wheat came out on the
break which followed, May going down to
S07Sc, and the close was easy at 9lc.
Corn was quiet to-day, but was rather firm
during the forenoon on good buying by one
or two prominent houses and some covering
by shorts. May opened unchanged at 40c:
advanced to 403sc; weakened some in the
afternoon, and closed steady at 401sc.
Oats were firm on good covering by shorts
and better outside demand. Offerings were
light The close shows prices unchsnged.
Hog products were easier on the larger re-
ceipts of hogs than expected and lower
prices at the yards. There were some weak
rallies during the session. but the general
tendency was downward, and the close was
at or near the hottom. Pork shows loss of
S0032c: lard, 59713c, and ribs, l00l5c
