WHEELING. March 18th, 1873.
The general trade shows better
movement than the week previous in
some erticle 9, but in the main it is still
dull and inactive. Probably the aver
age will shows more activity than the
week before. Money is still very tight
and dealings in speculative way are
very much restricted by the fact. Most
sales during the week have been for
supplying the immediate wants Of GUS
TONERS.
The Grain market is dull and prices
weak and without change.
Flour has declined and the market
is without animation. A further reduce
ton in some brands is looked for.
Sugars have declined fully tc and the
prospect for any advance is not hope
full.
The provision market is excited and
prices have advanced materially. On
Mess Pork the advance is. 81 so per
barrel and the tendency is still upward.
This rise was unexpected. but the fact
that the number slaughtered during
the packing season was far below all
expectation. the certainty OF their being
no summer hogs in the community and
the unparalleled European demand has
had the effect noted.
There is no Buckwheat Flour in our
market. The stock is exhausted.
There is no demand for Dried Fruits
Eggs are lower and more plenty. Our
quotations give the outside figures.
The Iron market shows q fair de-
mand for iron and nails, without change
in card rates.
The Wool market is still dull and
inactive, with but few transactions. In
New York the same condition is re
ported. The auction sale Friday was
largely attended. but the qualities OF
wool offered was generally poor and
brought low prices. The sale has had
no apparent effect as yet on the market
and prices remain as remarked. Sales OF
