DISPOSING OF POTATO STOCK

'WHOLESALERS GETTING , RID OF STOCK TO GET FRESH V ! SUPPLY. SELL AT 60 CTS A BUSHEL Sassafras Root is Going Down in Price Wholesaling for 75c Per Hundred Bunches. Grocers and commission dealers are taking advantage of the cold weather to dispose of the large stock of potatoes! on hand," and in large wholesale lots, they can be obtained for from sixty to sixty-five cents per bushel. There have been plenty of potatoes on the market all winter and the movement to dispose of them cheaply is in order that fresh stock may be shipped in from the potato growing states. Cabbage is also cheaper during the cold weather and is selling at $24 per ton, wholesade. The price has been a dollar higher on the ton and as soon as the warm weather comes the price will revert to its former position. It is not hard to keep cabbage in first class condition now and for that reason there is less danger from rotting. The first shipment of sassafras root, which appeared on the market late last week, is about gone and the price has been fairly cut in two. At first, the heavy demand caused the price to start at $1.00 per hundred bunches, but now any of the wholesale houses will sell the remainder of their stock for 75 cents per hundred bunches.

Disposition to Sell in Wheat Market; Traders Are Influenced by Higher Temperatures Easier in the Corn Pit. Chicago, February 7.r-Moderate demand by shorts : and " commission houses held the wheat market about steady here, despite selling by pit traders, who were influenced by higher temperatures throughout the West and Southwest. The Liverpool market showed only a slight response to yesterday's advance here, and this had a somewhat depressing effect. May opened a shade lower to a shade higher, and sold off to 444. Trading in oats was very quiet, and the tone of the market was steady. Provisions were firm on an active general demand. Chicago Grain and Provisions. (Furnished by 0. G. Murray.) open close.

Hog Receipts, 7,500; Prices 5 Cents Lower; Packers Bought Few Outside Orders An Easy Outlook For Cattle. Indianapolis, Ind., Feb. 7. Receipts 10,000 hogs, 1350 cattle and 350 sheep, against 5S8 hogs; 1,631 cattle and 221 sheep a week ago, arid 10355 hogs, 1,507 cattle and 126

sheep a year ago.: ' J ! '.- I There was no urgent demand from outside sources and local packers bid decidedly lower prices. Trading was J active at a general decline of 5c in j prices as compared witn yesterday. All buyers were in the field and a prompt clearance of the early receipts was made at opening prices. Several loads came in on late trains and with all buyers well supplied many loads remained unsold. Sales ranged ? from $5.75 to $5.90, j and the bulk of the 'supply sold at $5.85 to $5.90 with a large part of the sales at $5.85. Steady Demand For Cattle. : Receipts of cattle' were - comparatively small for a Wednesday, market, arid with a steady demand from practically all sources, especially from local packers, the market from the start was active, and all female butcher cattle, as well as the cheaper grades of steers, found an easy outlet at steady prices compared with yesterday. There was only fair competition for the heavier steers, and they sold slowly, but finally a ! good clearance was made at yester day's decline in values. There was a steady market for feeding cattle, bulls were steady, and good calves were steady, but others weak to 25c lower. Sheep Trade Quiet. There was a normal supply of sheep and lambs and with hardly enough here to invite competition between buyers trading was quiet, but the demand was equal to the supply, and a good clearance was made at steady prices. Lambs sold for $6.00 7.25, yearlings as high as $5.50 and old sheep for $3.005.00. Cattle.

MODERATE GAINS At THE OPENING

LEISURELY UPWARD MOVEMENT STOPPED BY LARGE SELLING: ORDERS. BUSINESS WAS SMALL Relative Evenness of Demand and Supply Kept Prices From Varying Much. New York, February 7. Moderate fractional gains, were general in the opening prices for stocks and wider changes were i shown in 1 some instances. Great Northern preferred rose 2 Northern Pacific 1, Union Pacific, Chespeake & Ohio and Colorado Fuel large fractions. The leisurely upward movement of prices was interfered with by the simultaneous execution of large selling orders in Reading and Amalgamated Copper. These stocks sold a point below yesterday's close and pulled several others down as much. Not much remained of the opening advances and subsequent gains, such as 34 in Great Northern preferred, and 1 to 114 in Locomotive, were well reduced or wiped out. Business increased dining the selling. Lead yielded 1 and Smelting and Colorado Fuel 1. Dull at the Decline. Prices hung suspended at the decline and only toward the end of the hour made slight recoveries. Business was small. Tennessee Coal fell 3, Delaware & Hudson 2 and Republic Steel 1. The relative evenness of the demand and supply kept prices from varying much, but in the early afternoon the market began to move quite definitely upward. Some of the standard stocks recovered to their top prices of the morning and Atchison and Wabash preferred gained 1 1. NEW YORK STOCKS. (Furnished by O. G. Murray.) , , open close. Amal.
