DYpIcK OF THE WHEELING REaIsTER,
WEDNESDAY,, Dec. 20, 1876.
Business in most branches has in
creased considerably since our last re-
port, especially in sugars, fruits OF all
kinds, poultry, and that quality OF goods
and produce incident to the holiday
season. Navigation not yet being open,
the stocks on hand in the various trades
are rather small, large amount of goods
having been shipped by river to this
point, and being ice-bound below.
In consequence merchants are
ordering but small installments
by rail barely sufficient to supply the de-
mand until navigation is opened. The
market for breadstuffs remains unchsng-
ed from last weeks quotations. The de-
msnd for wheat and corn is fair, and
prices for wheat have advanced 10 cents
per bushel. In the grocery line, bust.
ness continues fair, with an advance OF
1(9l cent Tor cofees and sugars. Eggs
are scarce and in good demand at 22@
24c. Poultry rules at about last weeks
prices, but there is an increased demand.
