busy. The demand from the Interior in view
Of the approaching holidays was active. Per-
sonal buyers were making liberal purchases.
The market throughout the week has been ac-
tive and prices have ruled firm, without any
changeof importance 20 note. Freights have
advanced, hence flour, western produce and
grain are held firmly at full prices, with the
exception of corn, which, owing to the heavy
receipts last week, has declined to CSC. Sales
were made this morning at these figures. One
carload of Arkansas corn in the husk sold at
Csc, which was at least sc above the market.
The demand from New Orleans on the large
receipts has created a speculative trade since
yesterday morning, which has given 10 the
market an interest. unexpected, and will
likely prove profitable. Since Saturday the
receipts OF corn have been about 1000 sacks,
and as many oats, with fair receipts of hay |
and lightin bran. Dealers in grain report a
good local trade with a fair interior demand.
In flour we nave to note lighter receipts and
stocks gradually diminishing, though the
supplies are equal to the demand. Til light
receipts are caused by high freights and the
upward tendency in values in upper markets.
There are no changes TO notice in the meat
market except a disposition to realize on the
part of dealers full prices. Bulk is in fair re-
ceipts. Stocks are full. b demand is fair
but not fully up 10 stocks. Bacon, all classes,
is in light supply, the demand in bulk hav-
ing, in a measure, superseded that for bacon.
Prices rule steady, but no decline. There is,
and has been, a notable fact, hat these goods
have ruled throughout the season relatively
lower here thai in st. Louis and Cincinnati.
This is pleasant 10 the consumer, but at the cost
of the dealer. The margin, If at quoted prices,

ries are nrm and unchanged. MOlasses and
sugar are in large supply with liberal receipts
from day to day. There is a lair demand.
Prices, however, are unsteady and range diff
ferently with dealers, though for the past few
days there has been adispOsition to settle upon
amore uniform price on the different grades. /
Coffee is steady. There is. however, no dispo-
sItion In this market 10 buy on speculation.
most of transactions are small ana for present
wants. In western produce there was a weak
er market h on Saturday. Potatoes are
dull; onions ditto; supplies are large and the
demand supplied. Other articles are IN sup
ply equal to the demand CoTnmeal is very
scarce. The mills are mostly looked to for
supplies.
