The exorbitant figures supposed , to be ruling are merely supposition, for i the bills of the purchasers do not show - more than tots. ., Some stock, dressed, does not command as -high a figure; in fact most of the arrivals will sell under ths top. Thus far only a small per cent .of the arrivals have been of first class quality, the percentage of "culls" being muoh heavier than usual. ' The big decline predicted in ' some quarters for the-chicken market has . not materialised, but at unchanged val ues the disposition of buyers is to go "low In closing deals.

This is likewise the heaviest : purchase made for European account this season, and indicates that the price of hops Is on debatable ground. Grow ers generally seem willing to accept the , present market, and dealers are llke- wise 'willing to do business. Besides the McLaughlin lot, a number of other transactions have been reported during . the past 14 hours.
