Eggs by Carload Stall in Chicago Yards
Chicago April 26 Two hundred carloads of eggs totaling 80 000 to 100 000 cases are stalled on tracks in Chicago held by speculators and operators branding the market. Robert A. Emerson reports to John J. Dillon the commissioner of New York that supply and demand laws move little in price. He notes Pacific coast imports and a coming eastward shipment while Chicago pays higher prices than London or Liverpool. He sees no egg trust but an apparent understanding among large dealers.
