1 2S buying and 4 premium selling; some
dealers refusing to give over Il to any but
| customers. Sales were made by regular
drawers, too, in a few instances, at 40045c..
on account Of shortness in their stock of

telegram to the Chamber of Commerce, yes
terday, announced further decline of New

are street rates there, no doubt, and will not
probably, affect the price Of Southern Bills

premium, with occasional sales to the Coun-
try Banks.
In Uncurrent Money there was no change.
Business was quiet, more so than on Tues
day or Wednesday.
The New York and New Orleans telegrams
to the Chamber of Commerce represent
nearly every article dull and unchanged,
and there was little animation in the Pro-
| duce market here. Flour was still unsettled
and prices were irregular, though holders
| were tolerably firm and unwilling to submit
TO the views Of buyers. The sales were few,
and 81 1904 85 were the prices for super.
fine, and 81 90@5 10 for extra. The sales
reach $50 barrels at 50 90@G. Whisky was
dull without change in rates, 1,4OO barrels
selling at 16ISc.
Provisions remained very quiet. A fair
demand was still felt, however, for mess
| Pork at $l7 67@ls so; $50 barrels changing
hands at those figures. Groceries were un-
changed and steady. Wheat was unchanged,
and buyers continued to contend for lower
rates, which holders were unwilling to grant.
Prices remained nominal, and only 400 bush
els were disposed of. Corn Oats. Rive and
prime Barley were in fair demand and
steady.
Hogs were quiet yesterday, but holders
were firm at Sc 75 for 20O-pound animals for
November and So 80 for December delivery;
| buyers wishing to purchase at l00l5c. lower
The only transaction we hesrd of was 200
Hogs for the first twenty days of November
at Sc 621S@6 65. Two or three other small
| sales were made, but the terms were kept

mentioned there was a sale of 600 2OO-pound
Hogs, for December delivery, at Sc 371S per
