The Cincinnati Commercial of the 9Th
says:
Business, in a general way, is az IMAM
innate as ever.
Flour has but the most limited demand.
and liberal concessions would haye to be
made to attract buyers. Good extra will
not bring over IS, nor favorite brands more
than So Superine has nominal range at
81 25G7 So
Wheat is still lower. Prime old Red will
not bring over 81 so, though it is not offer
ed al less than 81 80. The best Of new
meets with little OF no inquiry above 81 so.
The offerings on so heavy a market, of
course, make more Of show than they 9TH |
erwise would. Only local millers are buy
ing, and they very spHringly.
Corn is inactive at the old figures.
Oats are less firm, and Ale an extreme |
price.
Rye is but little more than nominal at soc. |
Barley Of the best grades only is saleable, /
and that not readily.
The Provision market has but very little |
animation. There is a fair supply Of orders |
for consumptive account, but none seem to |
be placed by spectators.
Mess Pork sold al SIS, and is steady at
that figure.
Lard sold at 2O1zc, in tierces, and 221lcin |
kegs; generally, however, &c above these |
figures is asked.
Bulk meats that have been sufficiently |
long in salt to be safely packed, ere in fair |
request. Clear Sides sold at lie, packed. |
Ribbed are quoted at I5c, and Shoulders at |
I21kMl3c for shorter dates in salt
In green Meats there was little or moth |
ing done, because OF the unsaleable weather. |
A lew Hams were sold at l5c.
Colonel McFeeiy hiss issued proposals for
1000 barrels mess Pork, and 100000 Bacon,
bids 10 be opened on Wednesday next.
The weather has now for three days been
unfit for cutting, and the Hog market has
been correspondingIy inactive. The stock
on the market has been light The absence
II a sense of community of interest be-
tween the packer and drOver becomes more
apparent.
Drovers asked about the same range of
prices as We're current on Saturday, namely,
50 scale 25 gross, Sll 50Gl2 90 net, for
deliveries when suitable killing weather is
had but sales amounted 10 scarcely any
thing.
'Drovers or producers are keeping back
their stock with more than ususl tenaeity,
trying TO manage to save themselves from
new losses, and, in view Of all the circum-
stances, are making their points better than
was TO be expected.
Considerable changes have occurred in
the prices of uncurrent money, as will be
seen by Mr.. Mars exhibit, below;
