feature in the early situation the absence
OF any influential buying. The market lacked
its usual support. the reinstatement of big
lines previously sold out. The seeming reason
was that most OF the large traders were dis
posed to await developments over sunday. An
other factor in discouraging general buying
early was for the purpose of enabling the pur-
chase Of July wheat at lower prices. - the
session was nearing the close there was a sud
den outbreak OF spectacular selling of May.
The heavy orders were generally supposed q
be for the account OF the principal long The
general selling movement thus suddenly inaug-
urated resulted quickly in a severe slump in

DcciduonS and Citrus Fruits.

The cloudy, threatening weather continued
TO exert q depressing influence upon the market
for fresh fruits, particularly in the citrus
department. There some little activity
during the early trade caused by the extra de-
mand for cheap Oranges among small retailers
and peddlers fer the Sunday trade. but trading
was confined almost entirely to the hlling of
small orders. The large sizes of fancy Navels
were stilI firmly held. but the demand for such
fruit was OF q hand-to-mouth character. Mexi-
can Lines were closely cleaned up and hrm,
but all other Citrus fruits were plentiful and
weak The managers of the auction company
announce that five of Navels are at hand
for to-moTrow's auction and four more are re-
ported due.
Stocks of common Apples were steadily ac-
cumulating and were offered freely at lower
prices Medium and fancy grades were rather
dull but firmly held Ripe Bananas were
abundant and met with light demand.
