THE LOCAL MARKETS

PROSPECTS ARE TINE FOR A LARGE APPLE CROP IN THIS SECTION OF THE STATE. The Recent Snowfall Was Beneficial to Apple Orchards It is Thought the Period of Killing Frosts Will he Postponed Farmers Are Looking Forward to a Big Grain Crop. The prospects for a large apple crop in this section of the country was never brighter than this year. Although the reason of 1!M was most disastrous for pollizenation and maturing apples, it was favorable for the production of healthy and well-matured fruit buds. A well known farmer in the city yesterday said. "The recent snowfalls from March 12 to 10 pave us 10 or 12 inches of snow which will no doubt prolong the blooming period until after May 1, after which time we trust to escape the killing frosts and the cold weather during the polliatioii, which is the danger period to the apple grower. Until Ave have passed this blooming season it would be idle to prophesy the coming ciop, even though we now have perfect conditions. The farmers of Wayne County are looking forward to big grain crops the coming season. This great fall of snow insures good soil conditions.". COUNTRY PRODUCE. . (Paid by the Bee Hive Grocery.)

I IHDIAIIAPOLIS MARKETS

Large Hog Receipts; Prices Ten Cents Lower; Packers had the Local Market to Themselves Active Bidding for Cattle. Indianapolis, March 22. Receipts 5,0000 hogs, 1,0000 cattle and. 100 sheen, against 2.080 hogs. 1,090 cattle and 17 sheep a week ago, and 3,f)."0 hogs, 655 cattle and 50 sheep a year ago. There was a good increase in the receipt of hogs, the supply being the largest in about two weeks. This alone would have contributed to a weaker market, but local packers were also favored by little opposition from outside sources, and forced prices 7l2C to 10c lower and occasionally 15c lower. There were several later arrivals, and the closing market was quiet and a trifle lower than the opening. Sales ranged from $6.30(6.50, and a large number of good hogs of all weights sold at $0.40. Better Demand For Cattle. Receipts of cattle were a little lar ger than they have been, but the pro portion of good to choice kinds was no larger, and there was not as many good steers as yesterday. There was a better demand from local packers, and although shipping orders Avere not so plentiful, bidding was active, and all kinds of fat cattle sold promptly at steady prices. The de mand for feeding cattle was not better, and prices were barely steady, and bulls moved slowly at barely steady prices. Calves were plentiful and with only fair competition be tween buyers sales were $1 lower than yesterday, an unusual decline for one day. Larger Sheep Receipts. Receipts of sheep and lambs were a little larger, but still too small to establish new prices. Evidently, however, there was a weaker feeling, in sympathy with other places, and sales were slightly lower. There were no lambs here good enough to bring over $0.00, but they were not top kinds. A few sheep sold at $5.00, but they were extra and $4.50 is ordinarily the top price. Cattle.

NEW YORK MARKETS

WDISPLAY OF SUPPORT STOP PED THE SELLING OF WEAK STOCKS BONDS STEADY. General List Almost MotionlessReading Was Bought ConfidentiallyMarket Showed Firm Undertone With Narrow Movements There was not Enough Stock Sold to Hurt Prices Much Steady Close. New York. March 22. Sales of New York Central carried it down '2 from last night's closing price at the opening of the stock market, and Chicago & Northwestern lost of yesterday's large advance. The general list was not affected by these movements, and was almost motionless. Dealings were on a very meager scale. Buying onKrs were placed in many of the jwtive stocks before the weakness of New York Central and Missouri Pacific had time to bring about any sympathetic depression. This display of support stopped the selling of the weak stocks, and they recovered fully. Reading was bonjjit confidwitly. and so were certain railroads and specialties which have recently been liquidated freely. Trading Was Small. The market showed a firm undertone, but movements were narrow and trading small. Evidence of support on declines was counterbalanced by increased offerings on advances. Bonds were steady. No Chance For Profits. Prices see-sawed over a gradually narrowing range until there Avas scarcely enough leeway for profitable trading. In axway the market was inclined to yield, but there was not enough stock sold to hurt prices much. Northwestern was quite variable, and after making up its morning loss of 3 points and 1H m addition, it again reacted to a point under last night. New York Central also declined a point. Closing was steady and generally higher than the opeijing. NEW YORK STOCKS. (Furnished by 0. G. Murray.) open close. Amal. Copper 1054 106 Am. C. & F 41M. 4iy2 Am. Locomotive 68 6S Am.
