Receipts of frul^ on the local produce market
were heavy yesterday, although grapes were
unusually scarce during the earlier trading.
One carload of California Muscat grapes, packed
in lug boxes, arrived late in the day. which
was offered to the later a/temoon trade at
$2.50 a lug.
Other receipts Included a carload of Colorado
Elberta peaches, some of the first to be re-
ceived In several days. They were offered at
$5.50 a bushel.
The arrival of two carloads of bananas gave
stimulus to trading in the fruit division. No
bananas have been on the market In nearly
one week, and owing to the brisk demand
for the shipments, prices were boosted to 10
cents a pound by local wholesalers. The new |
price was said to have been the highest reached (
in many months. Last Friday, when the lu>t j
bananas were offered, they were priced at 0Va
cents a pound.
Cabbage is moving more freely from Colo-
rado, selling at cents a pound.
Apples were also *arce on the early mar-
ket, although this scarcity was relieved with
the arrival of two carloads of the fruit, in-
cluding one carload of Missouri Jonathans and
one car of apples of the (lano variety, from
New Mexico. Both varieties Were priced at
*4 a box. A carload of Colorado ' Browu
Beauty" potatoes arrived, which were priced
at $3.75 a 100 pounds.

At first the wheat market was unususlty

eries here and at Kansas City. It was said
also that Krsnce bought futures at Winnipeg.

ance was made by cotton to selling pressure
today, and during the greater part of the ses-
sion prices were held above tlw> level of yester-
day's close. It was not until reports were cir-
culated that the Federal Reserve Board had
refnsed any special aid to the cotton growers,
but had advised the farmers to make use of
I ankinic facilities at hand in the South, that
the market kofteued and went to small declines
below the level of yesteraay's close.
The better opening was due to a good Liver-
pool. and the advance continued on reports that
