Deak Sir: The market has declined some from last week's prices; but not on aceouut of any weak development in the situation. At the close of last week the price liad advanocd because the market had taken on a hopeful aspect which en liBted the sympathy of the ' locat- trade, but wlieu these holders tried to realize on Monday, the demand waa so limited that great weakness followed, resulting in a very disappointing market. Hince then the prices have not changed nmtei t We have heard reports that Kastern ills would resort to short time in order to curtail production as a method of re- lucing present excessive stocks of goods inch a condition would not materially iffeot prlce.4, while foreign trade con tinues so good. Receipts are now con- liderel by far the most important element affecting the futures of prices. Between Neill's and two other recent rop estimates, there ia such a wide dif ference as to arouse unusual interest in the outcome of this crop. The movement this week is moderate. The large exports continue and their effect is felt in higher prices at the South, and in the reduction if stocks at interior points. Market closes at decline of VI to 1.1 points from last week's prices. March de livery closes at 7.04, Your truly, Robert Mooes ii Co, THE MARKETS.
