Onion Prices Seem to Be On Decline—Some Sales.

T. M. Callahan was in Chicago last week and sold a carload of onions at $1.25 per hundred f. o. b. Newland. He is required to sort the onions and ship the best ones, excluding the small ones. A car consigned by him last week to St. Louis brought him 65 cents per bushel, but since then the price has fallen.
