NEW YORK, March 2S.--Local
meat markets are steady though
inactive. Receipts Of dressed meats
are in smaller volume due to the
Lenten season. Desirable beef steers,
yearlings, country veal and lamb
are passing into consumptive chan
nels at home and entering into a.
fair volume of expert shipments.
Offerings Of fresh killed poultry
constitute the mainstay of some
markets and takings are limited to
desirable stock. Dealers in fowls
and turkeys are busy, the best de-
mand being for high grade box.
packed mail birds, though barreled
fowls are in good demand at slight
ly lower prices. Ducks and geese
are scarce and prices firm. Squads
in liberal receipt and accommodating
with market weakness. A large
quantity OF frozen chickens moved
into retail channels this week with
prices generally near the top.
No radical changes have occurred
in the fish markets. Maine sar.
dimes are irregularly priced, and
slow sellers. Crab meat is freely
offered with few takers; lobster in
surplus supply and not a good
seller; white meat tuna is scarce
and holders. are not attempting to
exhaust supplies in the face Of a
good season ahead.
. Vegetables and garden produce
are active; receipts liberal and de-.
mand good. Bermuda potatoes and
Jersey and Delaware basket sweets
are. brisk; prices well sustained.

NEW YORK, March 2S.-In con.
trast with the unsettlement in the
previous closing hour created by
vide open breaks in many high
priced specialties. the stock market
was quiet and steady in the first
two hours trading today.
From the way issues like Gen.
eral Electric, United Fruit and
American Can rebounded it could
be seen that yesterdays abrupt de-
cline was nothing more than a bear
raid engineered to facilitate cover
ing operations.
But if the bears had figured that
the spectacle Of lastly fading prices
in score of miscellaneous shares
would result in an overnight &C.
emulation Of outside selling orders,
they were disappointed. Liquida-
ton was conspicuous by its absence,
on the contrary, some buying was
met in different directions, being,
however, discriminative in char
acter, and converged mainly on
That spectators for the decline
In spite OF the markets strong un-
DERIVING position had not entirely
abandoned efforts to force prices
lower was seen in the weakness Of
certain specialties, including Con-
goleum. Cast Iron Pipe, Cuyamel
Fruit and American Agricultural
Chemical preferred. Corn products,
too, fell back in the early dealings,
rejecting expectation Of only
$3.50 quarterly dividend on the old
stock at today's meeting. But soft
ness was only sporadic occurrence
ana did not even cause a ripple on
the speculative surface. BY the
end of the first hour bearish at
tempts were given up and gradu-
ally hardening tendency became ap-
parent in practically all groups Of
stocks.
Railroads, because Of the remark
able good showing Of the February
earning statements, were the out
standing favorites with shares Of
the northwestern roads commanding
the bulk of constructive attention.
Northern Pacific's report was par
ttculariy impressive, a large deficit
being supplanted by a big surplus.
81. Paul preferred was also in the
speculative limelight, heavy buying
carrying this issue to %, it's pre-
Vious top level for the year.
Petroleums gave fair exhibition
Of strength, numerous fractional
gains being scattered throughout
this section. Coppers were inclined
70 heaviness, due to the uncertain
trend in the market for the yellow
metal.
Call money renewed at 4 per cent,
Cotton futures experienced a good
recovery. Grains were steady.
Foreign exchanges were steady.
