close last night that the selling was

PRODUCE OX THE STREET. Chicago, March 5. An unsettled feeling prevailed in both the butter and egg markets. Supplies are increasing and despite the active consumptive and shipping demand, owing to the recent decline, stocks are accumulating. Express arrivals of eggs were again heavy, while freight arrivals were about the largest received this year, ln poultry the undertone was steady. The arrivals were somewhat heavier than of late, but the demand was good. Trade in veal was of fair volume, with offerings fairlv liberal and prices inclined to work lower. In fruits and vegetables a fair volume of business was reported at previous prices. Quotations on round lots ranged: Butter Receipts, 5.124 tubs.

Our advices of the past few day
remains unchanged. We think that the
market has turned, and that purchases
are ln order on weak spots.
Special stocks break with very little
effect on the general list, I hear on
pretty good authority that Standard
Oil interests have brought a great deal
of Union Pacific the past week. In
siders have been buying stocks all
through the list. The question
whether these purchases were made to
hold, or will they come on the mar
ket again at the first opportunity.
I see better prices today, the big
speculators are expecting a rally but
on very strong spots would put out
stocks again for a turn.
Slow liquidation may probably be in
order again today. It saps at the sta
bility of prices and renders stocks
weak under bear pressure. Reports of
