change during the week. Louisiana Las

aud Wisconsin have advanced to 5(D5L
Missouri to 3QG34, and Iowa to dis; Vir-
ginia 34G94, and Pennsylvania ? dis, except
Pittsburg, which is par.
The weather has been quite cbangeable
during the week In the forepart quite
cold, but the last two days mild and wet.
Vegetation has not progressed any worth
naming.
Generally speaking, business in the vari-
Gus departments has been good, and the
quantity Of merchandise and manufactured
articles going into the interior continues
quite large. Flour has been quite dull, and
prises close fully DC lower, though holders
submit to any decline with reluctance, but
during the last three days it has been ex-
ceedingly difficult to sell super6ne to any
extent at over 81 4OG94 so, and extra 81 .
C94 rs. The demand is chiefly from the
South and nll on orders. Oats declined to
csc, and are dull the receipts have been
very large. Prime red wheat has been
taken freely at s and white at 81 1901 IL,
and the market closes firm. Corn has ruled
firm for ear, ut 33c at the lower depots.-
Rye is in fair demand at 55@56c. Barley
Unchanged there is n continued fair de-
mand, at G60G8c for prime fall.
The demand for whisky has been quite
large, and prices were we'll sustained in the
fore part Of the week but Mt the close the
supply increased, and decline of ic was
established, the market closing dull. The
stock is increasing.
Glover seed has nuctuated considerably,
and the market ruled dull the demand fell
of, whilst the supply increased, and prices
declined to 81 %, and yesterday sales of
any magnitude could not have been made
at over $4 90. Timothy in fair demand,
and good supply at 81 1902 80. The sea
son is now pretty well advanced, and tn
receipts of clover being quite large, a dull
market may be expected henceforward.
| Fresh butter has been very scarce, and
not in sufficient supply to meet the local de-
mand and prices are fully &c higher prime
to choice fresh bringing 10000 in roll
Cheese unchanged and steady at SIC for
shipping parcels.
Linsecd oil is very dull and mas been sold
ut 625c, though in the small way G3GD64c
are the rates obtained.
Tho demand for sugar, coffee and molas-
ses has been good, but as regards molasscs
the business done has been confined TO the
iobbIng trade. Sugar and coffee have been
bought quite freely by country and city
dealers, though the demand cannot be called
active, but very full prices have been real
izcd for the higher grades Of both. l,0ls
bags coffee 1924 brls molasses, and clio
hhds sugar went out during the week, ndi
eating continued good demand.
The business done in provisions during
the week has been fair, and the feeling OF
the part OF holders has been irmer, bu
there being no speculative demand, the mar
kct has not displayed any activity, ant
closes rather quiet. Mess pork has beer
dealt in to a moderate extent at SIG 80 70
country, and SIG 70 for city, bu. these rate
being below the views of holders and "A
high as buyers were disposed to pay, th
