Track holdings of potatoes declined steadily through the past week. The Chicago market reported much better undertone to the market during the middle of the past week and prices advanced around 10 cents oh Idaho Russets. Fancy stock sold at a range of prices sometimes 50 cents above lowest quotations. i)e mand was reported slow In that quarter during the greater part of this time, but lighter supplies changed the tone of conditions. The southern California market, as re fleeted by Los Angeles trading, was fairly active during the first few days of this period, but heavy receipts in that terminal caused a slump in both demand and prices, especially on or dlnary stock. Track holdings at Los Angeles increased until they were about double in amount at the close of the period of what they were at the opening. Light shipments from Washington helped the situation In northern California somewhat and liberal supplies of Idaho potatoes were moved into that section. Texas markets were very dreggy during the early part of this time Rurals sold considerably cheaper than during the previous ten days and prices at Idaho shipping points reflected this weakness. Kansas City trade was about normal for this season of the year and sales to near by points and in southern territory held a fair volume. St. Louis was in active during the greater part of the time, heavy track holdings having a depressing effect on the market. In the Idaho Falls section prices fluctuated considerably, opening sales on No. 1 Russets ranging from $1.90 to $3 cash on track, and the market first declining to $190 to $2 and again advancing from $2 to $2.10. No. 2s were in fine demand during the entire period and prices held steady to firm. Cash track prices on Rurals opened at $1.80 to $1.90 on eastern packs, declined to $1.75 at $1.85 and again advanced to $1.75 at $1.90 at the close. California pack Rurals were hardly a market factor durlna this time, but generally sold a shade above these quotations. The Falls-Bumarket in the Burley-Twl- n section also strengthened after showing a decline at the opening of this period, ranging $2 at $2.15 and slightly higher at the close. s hl Court Motion Asks $10,000 Attorney Fees Special to The Tribune.
