Growers there ara showing no disposi tion (a let go except at toll opening prices. Leading buyers hav been holding off Is an ticipation of a break in tba ideaa of growers, but thla baa not proven tba case. Tbe fact of tbe witter la tbat La both the seat and west bean prlcea hare been held high because grew, ers control tbe situation at this time. Stocks of beans In tbe banda of Jobbers were nerer so small ss at this time. Canned bean interests base also been disap pointed, and np to this time bare done little buying.
