REVIEW or TIE CLEVELsND WHoLESALE
PRODUCE MARKET FOR TIE WEEK END
ING FEBRUARY6, lssO.
The quiot which ruled in the produce market at
the date Of our lastreport has continued unbroken
throughout the past week, and We have no move
ment Of special Importance TO chronicle, Flouriis
steady at former prices but Is in local demand on
ly. Wheat has been very quiet. The prices asked
BY holders are too high to allow millors a margin
ct the present rates for four and mills are idle
or running only to fll orders. On the other hand
receipts are very light and receivers claim that the
figures demanded are as low as the prices ruling at
other points will allow and they are consequently
generally unwilling TO make any concession. A
few sales, however, have been reported at a de-
cline. Corn remains as dull as ever, and with a
large supply aud light demand prices are irregular
and weak. Oats still continue very dull, and by
the carload there is absolutely nothing doing.
There has been an improvement in the pork mar
ket, and holders have advanced their views 5Oo8
81 A considerable business might be done at last
weeks quotations, but nobody is Inclined to accept
them. Holders seem sanguine Of still better fig
ures ahead. There has been q corresponding i'm
provement in lard but it has Head to any move
ment except that in one instance a considerable
sale of somewhat inferior quality was made at for
mer full figures. Smoked meats are in local de-
mand only, and are unchanged.
The demand for seeds has been good, and toward
the middle Of the week, owing to the presence Of
eastern buyers, clover advanced again. The i'm
prOyement was temporary, however. and prices are
now about the same as at the date Of our last.
Butter is dull and unchanged. Eggs have de-
clined, owing to better receipts. Whiskey, also,
is lower.
Under the head Of groceries, we have to note
fan Of 10 in refined sugars. Other grades and 9TH
er articles are unchanged.
