the general markets and our dealers
are anticipating q pretty lively spring
There are no great changes to note.
There appears a considerable difficulty
in getting money accommodations, and
in most articles there has not appeared
anything 10 warrant investments for
speculative purposes. A good many
persons are keeping out Of the market
hoping for lower prices when spring
opens.
The flour market is considerably
excited and prices for the better grades
have advanced fully SOC per barrel
as will be seen by our quotations.
The Wheat markets are weak but
without change. There is much diver.
sity Of opinion between the bulls and
the bears" the one protesting that
prices must advance, from the very
nature of things, and the other as firm
in the belief that although change is
likely, the tendency is for lower figures.
We are of the opinion that the present
figures will rule for some time yet.
Corn has been very steady during the
week, but the feeling seems to be that
the enormous amount vet to come to
market, will tend to lower prices.
OATS are very firm, though without
change.
In the seed market trade is weak
The price seems to be declining all over
the country. Sales were made in New
York on Monday OF Timothy seed at
$3,75@s4
In groceries we have no changes OF
any importance to make. except in COT
fee which is advancing in price and is
stiff at the advance.
There seems to be a better inquiry
for Salt Fish, but prices are without
material change.
lu the Iron market we mark down
the prices of some grades OF nails Soc
per keg. Manufacturer iron is lower.
The Wool market is dull and weaker.
Sales cannot be made now at as good
prices as a week ago. Advices from
New York, state that there has been a
little more movement but not by auy
means an active market. A few man.
ufacturers are in the city looking
around and they have apparently come
to the conclusion that purchases must
be made or the mills shut down. There.
has deem no further concessions made
on the part of dealers, the decline be-
ing for the past month about DC per 10
all around. Foreign is in better re-
quest, but the supply is sufficiently large
TO meet all immediate wants.
