New York Eggs Wednesday, September 27 Local wholesale interest was light, generally limited to regular customers for immediate needs. There were too few cash tran sactions to report wholesale values this morning; most sales are to be billed on market values to be determined Thursday. Floor stocks are tending to accumulate slightly on all but jumbos and are mostly ample. Offerings from shipping points are reported readily available from nearby and Southern areas. Carton movement into retail channels is fair but irregular. Undertone unsettled and weak.
