Provisions Live Stock, Grain and Stock Markets

RICHMOND MARKETS Those persons who hare an appetite for green cucumbers can get them on the market at the present time for $1.25 per dozen. All are hothouse grown and are of medium size. Other hot house vegetables are now on the market in good quantities, the price of such however being beyond the size of the average man's purse, hence their limited sale. The prices will not drop until the shipped vegetables begin to appear upon the markets and even at that time the price will not be materially affected until the home grown products begin to make their appearance. Apples are plentiful and the price low, ranging from $2 to $4.00 per barrel. Grimes Golden are heading the high price procession and are probably the most popular upon the market, although the Greenings, Baldwins, at $2.r0 per barrel, are selling rapidly. Although apples are plentiful at this time the prices are expected to soar before many weeks, as apples are rotting fast, and cannot bo kept with the-same degree of satisfaction as those of former years. Butter is still bringing good prices, and notwithstanding that the grocers are offering 25 cents per pound for the commodity, the farmers cannot begin to supply the demand, as the majority of them are selling their milk: to creameries. The live stock market was at a standstill yesterday for the first time In several days, neither cattle or hogs making any change. Farmers are still wearing the broad grin, however, as prevailing prices on both are such as to make them believe that they will even go higher. THE LOCAL MARKETS.

"What's the name of the book?" "It ain't named yet, lady. I'm Jest takln' some interestin' notes as I go on me way, an' den some day I'll set down an' put 'em all tergether. "You fellows tell such tales," she suspiciously remarked as she looked him over. "Dat's wot dey do, lady," he replied as he took out pencil and paper and began to write. "Scuse me while I put down dat a kind an beautiful lady, meanin' you, gib me some ideas fer me book an den Inwited me in an gib me de finest spread I had on de hull trip.

NEW YORK MARKETS tPnbHshers Pr0 New York, January 31. The opening dealings in stocks were comparatively quiet and the price changes were small as a rule, but irregular and confused. Much irregularity characterized th selling dealings. There was no such urgent selling pressure as yesterday, but demand was very languid on advances. Successful attacks were made against stocks which have a predominating influence on the market, such as Reading and Union Pacific. Pretty much all of the list moved on a level with yesterday's closing or below. A few isolated advances were recorded. Bears Driven to Cover. The decline carried the average level of prices lower than before, but the character of the buying impressed the bears and they bought freely to cover shorts. The recovery halted near last night's closing bid and the demand became languid. Bonds were heavy. Some additions were made to the recovery that was in force at midday, before the market began to gradually slide back again. The recessions, however, did not exceed one?half and were attended by dullness. CORNELIUS VANDERBILT. tsce Scion of Famoni llonae "'lio Jn Inventor and lCuurineer.
