purchasing. The tightness of the money
market is relieved somewhat, but the horse
disease has made the means Of transporta-
ton from cars Of stores for delivery in. the
large Eastern cities very difficult and very
high. The extra cost of handling produce
has TO be paid by some one, and The ques-
ton now is who is IL, the producer or the
consumer. To-.
The flour market is very dull and prices
have declined for the lower grades. There
Is no prospect for change In quotations
just now though the feeling is rather for a
decline than an advance in rates.
The wheat market has a downward ten
dency and our quotations are for the best
article. An in erior grade of wheat will not
bring the quoted price.
The MAJ ket for corn has remained steady
during the week, the sales for the home de-
mand keeping pace with the receipts. Oats
have advanced lc per bushel, with firm
feeling, the demand being for the city trade
The market for barley has settled down to
about 75c per bushel, but the increased re-
ceipts make the market weak. Rye has
also fallen in price, the last quotable sales
being made at 65c.
In provisions there has been some change
during the week in smoked meats, pork
and ard, all of them having declined some
what, as will be seen by quotations.
In produce we have few changes to make.
Butter is firm and choice grades in demand;
prime very slow of sale. Eggs are very
scarce, and find ready market at 25c
There is no change in the condition OF the
cheese market; but little is being sold, ow
ing to the factories holding the cheese so
high that buyers cannot see any profit in
purchasing. Prices in the East remain
firm, while the Western and Southern mar
ket is Weakening, owing 10 increased ship
ments there.
In g cen stuffs there is a firm feeling in
potatoes, green apples and beans, with a
pro pect of an advance in potatoes during
the week. We advance our quototions In
green apples 25c per barrel and DC q bUshel
from teams for hand-picked, with a fair
trade Sweet potatoes steady, with a fair
demand as the season draws to A close
No changes to note in dried fruits. Our
dealers report an INQUIRY as to what the
market price for dried fruit will be. Small
sales are now made at quotations, but could
scarcely find a purchaser for large quan'i-
ties. It is probable that the price will range
from AZ to SIC, according to quality.
No change 10 note in the price of wool,
but there seems to be better feeling in the
market, and some wool is moving Deale
are purchasing more freely, as the price
seems to have settled down at about the
figures we have given for the las. two W eks.
+ aSteln dealers are now sending their Or
derS West to be filled. The Eastern dealers
are very cautious men, and generally await
the deye ,opnent OF affairs rather than pu'-
chase IN uncertainties. The farmers who
took the advice of the REGISTER early in
the season and sold their wool realized 10 10
10 per cent more than those who held on to
to their clip and now have it to sell.
