WES ARE NOW IN DEMAND

LOW PRICES CAUSES BRISK SALE AND FRUIT ADVANCES SLIGHTLY. UNUSUAL SALE OF APPLES And Phenomenal Price is Maintained Without The Least Trouble Peanuts Are Plentiful. A stronger demand for oranges has sprung up within the past few lays and better fruit is being supplied from the California groves. There has been an advance of ten cents on the box but as soon as the brisk demand drops off the price will be dropped several points. At present the best grades of California Navels are selling at $2.60 per box and retailing for from twenty-five to forty cents per dozen. There is an unusually large demand for apples and the high price is being maintained with no trouble. Several car loads are being shipped to this city from New York every week and there are several varieties of fancy Colorado apples on the market, which are shipped in boxes. Since the winter demand for peanuts has dropped there has been a reduction in the price of about $1.00 per 100 lb. sack. Peanuts are very plentiful and a great many are sold by the local commission houses. LOCAL MARKETS COUNTRY PRODUCE. . (Paid by the Bee Hive Grocery.) Butter.

CHICAGO MARKETS

Crop Damage in India vs. Snow in Kansas Influenced the Wheat Market; Small Business in Corn Pit. Chicago, February 8. Reports on increased damage by drought to the wheat crop of India and an advance in prices at Liverpool imparted strength at the start to the wheat market here. The first quotations of May were up 3,4(ac and the price soon touched SSSoc. An official forecast of snow tonight in Kansas and Nebraska caused a moderate reaction, the price of May declining to 85Vs(S5y4c. Cash Houses Bought Corn. A decline in the price of corn at Liverpool caused a slight depression eaily in the corn market. The volume of business was very small. The principal buying was by cash houses, and selling was scattered. May opened unchanged to a shade lower, and during the early trading held within fair figures. Small local receipts and the lively export demand caused firmness in the oats market at the opening. Local traders were fair buyers. Provisions were strong on small receipts of live hogs and an active demand by short and local packers. Prices on hogs were 5(al0c higher. Chicago Grain and Provisions. (Furnished by O. G.

J! INDIANAPOLIS MARKETS

Hogs Again Climb to the Six-Dollar Mark; Shippers Active Bidders and Got the Supplies Cattle Steady. Indianapolis, February 8. Receipts 6,000 hogs, 1,100 cattle and 150 sheep agairst 6,114 hogs, 1,155 cattle and 64 sheep a week ago and 8,444 hogs, 1,415 cattle and 60 sheep a year ago. Fresh receipts of hogs were not liberal but with those carried over from yesterday about 7,000 were on sale. There was an increase in shipping orders and with a strong demand from that source the market opened active with sales showing a gain of 5f10c over yesterday. Local packers were slow in following the advance and did not get many hogs, but there was a prompt clearance. The range in prices was $5.90(a6.00 and the proportion of hogs at $5.95 was probably as large as at $5.S5 yesterday. Active Demand for Cattle. There was a small run of cattle, and with a good demand, both from local and outside sources, there was active competition, which resulted in a prompt transfer of the offerings at steady to strong prices, compared Avith yesterday. Frequent sales were 1015c higher. There was a good demand for feeding cattle at recent prices, bulls were steady and calves as high as yesterday. Large Run of Sheep. There was a little better run of sheep and lambs although the supply was not large enough to accommodate local butchers and leave enough to interest outside buyers. There was fair competition in the market, however, and the trading was reasonably active at about yesterday's prices, but probably around 25c lower than the close of last week. There were no lambs reported above $7.00, but most of the good kinds sold at that price and other sales ranged from $5.006.75. The best sheep sold at $4.50 and other sales ranged from $3.004.00.

STOCK PRICES CARRIED DOW

FREE SELLING CARRIED OPENING PRICES IN MARKET LOWER. HEAVY REALIZING SALES j Force TJ. S. Steel to Decline Room Shorts Perplexed by Recovery in Reading.

NeAV York, February S. Free selling carried open prices in the stock market lower than last night, declines averaging' Vo or more. Great Northern pfd. dropped l1, Reading iys, Smelting a point, Union Pacific and Atehinson, the United States Stocks, Colorado Fuel and Sugar large fractions. Stocks in which declines were severe received immediate support, but the losses were not in all cases wholly made up, and there was a repetition of the selling later. "While the recovery was in progress, railroad stocks were helped by the absorption of the Hill stocks, Creat Northern preferred and Northern Pacific rising 1 each. Rock Island also rose a point, and some of the specialties, such as Locomotive and Amalgamated Copper, gained a fraction. Later the market was selling considerably below7 the opening low level, and several sharp losses had occurred. Steel Had Setback. Pressure relaxed on some of the weaker stocks and was transferred to new points. United States Steel prefered declined l1 and the common . Reading, Smelting and Amalgamated Copper showed fair realizing power a::d steadied the rest of the list. Bidding For Reading. Room shorts were perplexed by the recovery in Reading, despite the continuous pressure against United States Steel and other favorites and began to bid for that stock. Their buying caused a rally of 3 points from the lowest, placing' it more than a point above yesterday's closing. Tennessee Coal also made a strong rally, converting a loss of 2 into a gain of 2y2. The general list was indifferent to these special movements and became almost stagnant. A later reaction of a point in Reading was also ignored. NEW YORK STOCKS. (Furnished by O. G.
