There was more activity in the Provision

entirely to English and Bulk Meats. The

tlrely nominal. Round lots are offered at
S20.OO January, and $3.50 spot. Some re-
tail sales were made at Sl9.75 for new, and
sl9OO for old. Extra Prime Pork was sold

no urgency in the demand and prices were
weak with declining tendency.
Carbon Oil Was in fair consumptive demand
and steady at 52@5lc. Linseed was in fair
local request, and was firmly held at 1850
LILO. The general market rules quiet.
In the Butter market no radical change has
taken place since the date date OF our last
weekly review. There has been slight in.
crease in the receipts, but of choice qualities
the supply is still short of the demand, and all
offerings coming under this head meet with
ready sale at full prices, while 36@3Sc are the
prices current for good straight Dairy. Some
thing very nice in small, neat packages would
command an advance OF 2013c. The market
for common Firkin is without the slightest
Improvement. The demand is light, and, I'M
der accommodating stocks, prices are unsettled
and irregular. We continue to quote Choice
