plentiful than they ever We're. In other
words, the bears are masters of the situation,
and are likely to remain SO, especially as the
crops for the coming year elsewhere are all
assured. The local market opened weak on
call this morning, bat strengthened up before
the close with light sales OF 500 tons of May
at from 81 3414 to 81 3I2E. The Barley mar
ket was stronger under light improvement
in the demand. The total sales were 600 tons
OF May at from s3 to S319 cents. The spot
markets hold steady, with light offers of
Wheat. The Eastern markets closed * OF a
cent higher. The London market was weaker.
The Vegetable market opened dull with
prices steady to-day. The Potato market
holds lirm and the demand is fair. The Onion
market is a little easier, but choice lots COM
nand top prices. New Vegetables are in light
supply, particularly Tomatoes, which were
quoted higher Peas are 1irmer.
IN the Fruit market there was no change.
Apples and Oranges are still coming in, but
meet With SLOW sale. Fresh supplies OF Lines
came IN from Mexico, but too early in the day
