Our markets have been very quiet during the past
week, with some fluctuations in plices will be
ced below. The trade has not been large, but about
as usual at this period of the year. There is no
speculative demand for any article and it must be
hard work to get up "corner'' now on anything.
The purchases are made in small quantities as are
wanted from week to week. The money market re-
mains unchanged. Gold has been down to 115 but
is now a little higher and the rates Tuesday were
1154@115f. Wednesday, 25th, they were 115l@l15s,
Apples are selling at s495 y Dbl; dried apples are

prices are ower-the best Vermont dairies selling at
