First prices were up 2 to 3 points. The chief buyer of March on Wednesday took in some 4,000 tons in that position on the call and a couple of thousand more shortly after that, Keceipts, 21.1H0 cases. The decline in fresh gathered eggs noted on Wednesday morning stimulated a more confident buying. Higher bids on change and a recovery of the decline Wednesday, the market closing with considerable firmness. Storage eggs are very quiet in the higher grades and values somewhat nominal.

There is a fair call for underpriced stock at a general range of 27(g30c.

28. Dyes-There were no development of any great interest reported in the local market for dyestuffs today. Demand was more or less routine and confined to rather small quantities. There was a faJr amount of interest displayed in the market for aniline salt, but actual business was confined to moderate quantities to cover actual requirements. The market for phenol wa.s easier, owing to the lack of demand.

Supplies of cresyllcacid were held at firm prices. Recent advance in prices did not seem to affect the market to any great extent. There was little desire on the part of dealers in the market for natural dyes to alter their prices to any extent. Some little out. trading was noted in the market for extracts, but as a rule consumers were more or less inclined to limit their purchases.
