ber corn all sold up strong to sac at the
close Until prices reach level where the
country will sell and roads will permit
larger movements, the shorts are likely to
keep on covering.
There was only moderate action in oats
for the day. Receipts were 112 cars and
estimate for tomorrow 1873 Shipping sales
are good from day to day Light receipts
put the market in a fairly strong position
All packing points had $4,000 less hogs
than last year 1t looks as if the larger
holders OF product have about all liuuidated.
Some Of the smaller holders were letting
go on soft spots of the day. Offerings were
well taken by those who sold out higher up
Volume of trade is moderate for the present
Last prices for all products were practi-
cally same as yesterday If the hog sup
ply dimishes there is likely to be response
in the shape of strength in provisions.

Especial service to The Herald by Dick
Bros Co, members New York cotton ex-
change Bradbury building, Los Angeles).
NEW YORK, Jan. 27.-Cotton opened little
changed from yesterdays close. There was
some buying by eleventh hour bulls around the
opening but this was met by good selling by
both Liverpool and southern interests which
gradually put the market down to lower levels.
Spot sales at Liverpool were very fair but
showed no anxiety of demand. Expectations
of an increase in receipts was expected in
some quarters. Indications are that spinners
are not buying to any appreciable extent and
the situation appears clearer.
There seems also to be trade revival of
consequence in mercantile lines, If anything
more of a disposition to hold back pending
future developments. BY afternoon the prices
showed declines of a little more than ten points
from the opening, with the tone Of the market
still heavy.

UNSETTLED CONDITION
CONTINUES IN MARKET
FIRM TONE PREVAILS AT UN-
CHANGED PRICES
Northern Potatoes VIII Probably Adj
vance - Citrus Fruit Is Slow.
Heavy Demand for Apples.
Fish Scarce

The market was in an unsettled condition
yesterday as result of rains Trains were
more regular but reports from growers are
that produce is still hampered.
Prices were about the same. firm tone
prevailed in almost every line. Cabbage, po-
tatoes and bunch stuff were exceptionally firm,
but prices remained unchanged. 1t is said that
northern potatoes will probably advance in a
few days.
Vegetables were scarce in the face of keen
demand Lettuce and cauliflower receipts fell
off to nearly half the usual supply.
Butter, eggs, cheese and potato receipts were
larger than on the preceding day, condition
due probably to the arrival of delayed trains.
Fish continued to be scarce. Fishermen re-
port great Difficulty in casting nets. The
catches have been small ever since the rainy
season set in.
Citrus fruit was slow, but deciduous fruit
moved well. Apples were the best sellers and
sales doubled the preceding day. There were
a few strawberries on hand, selling at 10 to
12c a pint box.

time that it looked like an oversold market
and that purchases for rebound were in
order The market began with better
strength this morning.
There was general replacing OF long wheat
sold out on the decline. There was active
buying by the short sellers of yesterday and
most of them were taking losses instead of
profits There was no radical change in the
news. In fact the cables were little lower
