WHEELING, September q, ISL.
Flour has had a slightly improved de
| mand during the week, but most OF the or
ders have been for small amounts.
The fir;n tone of the Wheat market has
slightly strengthened the feeling on the
part OF holders, as well as afforded an In
ducement to dealers to buy freely. There
has been rather firm feeling in prices and
the market closed in advance OF the close oil
a week ago.
The receipts of Corn have improved, and
as result prices closed weak and lc lower
with every Indication Of still further de-
cline.
There has been no change of importance
in Oats during the week, but at the Close
prices were scarcely so firm.
Rye and Barley remain quiet, with scarce
ly enough doing TO establish prices.
There is no change of importance IN the
Provision market, except firmer feeling
in smoked meats, which is principally
owing to the scarcity OF hams, the STOCK
having been almost entirely exhausted.
Butter is firm and in demand for choice.
Cheese improved early in the week and
closed firm at an advance of lc per pound.
Eggs, owing to the light supply, have
been in demand, and at the close prices
were advanced l92c.
Potatoes have made q sudden move up
ward. There is considerable uncertainty
as to how long this advance will last.
Onions have been only in moderate de-
mand, and prices have ruled weak. All
other articles of Produce are without change
worthy of note, with the single exception
of Green Apples. The late fall and winter
fruit has commenced TO come in, and there
Is a very fair demand.
