cltement on call locally; business was
active; spot is still nominal, there being
nothing doing. Barley is lower for both
spot and futures; options are fairly ac-
tive, but spot is quiet No trading in
oats and corn, and prices stand as previ-
ously quoted; light receipts of oats; all
the corn still comes from the East. Rye

hay is steady and prices are unchanged;
receipts We're heavier, and included cars
from oregon, ! from Washington and
from Utah; some new river barley hay
sold at Sl4. Bran is higher
Receipts were 5,232 boxes Of cherries, 442
boxes Of apricots, 3SS crates and chestsIof
raspberries. l79 chests of currants. Rasp-

chests brought s5G7. Prices, as rule,
had lower range.
There is plenty of butter here and the
market is easy at previous prices. Some
dealers quote higher on eggs; the market
is STEADY; ouT ngures remain unchanged.
