Yesterday.

ID ~ IE4IN IAetelNtTS COnlpld1IGu
yesterday of an irregular market and
OF inability to clean up all the ac-
cumulation, and trade was light. Re-
eelpts were less than they were the
same day year ago. There is but
| little change in prices. There was
more inquiry for undergrades of
fresh yesterday, although held stock
was urged for sale without much
| success. Packing stock was up 1e.,
as the held is getting scarce and
fresh is in light receipt. Prices tol-
