RICHMOND MARKETS
Local commission, men are having troubles all of their own at the present time in securing enough onions to keep up with the demand. The open winter ha3 had a tendency to
rot the greater portion of last year's
onion crop and ' consequently onions
in any quantity are a very scarce ar
ticle. While the price last fall was bJt twenty cents a bushel, farmers
are now asking and receiving from
seventy five cents to one dollar per bushel. There is no possible relief
for thi3 market until ther spring onions
begin to arrive.
Although there are vast quantities of apples on the commission market
at this time the majority of them
are home grown and many-of the fa
vorite kinds grown in th? east are scarce owing to the congested freight r-onditlons In eastern points. The
growers cannot secure enough cars
to ship their fruit to the west.

CHICAGO MARKETS

. Chicago. Feb.. 16. The wheat, mar
ket opened fairly steady on covering by shorts, but within a short time eased off on selling by pit traders and commission houses, which was based on lower prices at Liverpool and an estimate of liberal world's shipments next week. The close was slightly above low for the day. Trading in the corn pit was In small volume, but sentiment was bearish because of the weakness of wheat. The oats market "was quiet and prices were easy. The provisions market opened steady, but weakened on realizing sales.

Scarcely had I done so when the conductor requested me to transfer to a secondclass car whenever it might come along, because no one is allowed to carry anything greater than a lap sachel first-class. A person without a necktie is no more allowed first-class on the street cars than was I with my parcel..

Arthur M. Knapp, in his "Feudal and
Modern Japan," points out, as other observing historians have done before him, that the apparently miraculous conversion of Japan to modern civilization is not so strange once it Is realized that Japan was already in a high state of civilization at the opening of the present modern era. Some time before America was discovered the Japanese had their banks, clearing-houses, and Europe's - supposedly modern system of bank checks, drafts, letters of credit and notes of hand. A thorough rural delivery postal system, also, 'was in vogue among the Japanese in the days when painted Indians still roamed the shores of New Englad and the Atlantic coast.
HEW YORK - MARKETS
IPnbllshers PresJ New York, Feb., 16. Opening prices of stocks showed a sluggish response to the advances of Americans in London and fractional losses were mixed with the gains. Buying orders were uncovered in Anaconda after it had lost nearly a Rpint and a quick rebound resulted to 3a above yesterday's closing. Subsequently all this advantage was lost and it vibrated nervously around 300. The fluctuations in the general marked were not wide. . The Close Was Strong. The market closed strong. The sluggish drift of prices carried the average rather higher than in the first hour, but the movement was uncertain and fluctuating.? The demand became more active in the closing dealings.
