Wheeling Wholesale Market.
OFFICE DAILY INTELLIGRNcER, !
Wednesday, Dec, 10.
The most noticeable feature in grain and
produce lines so far this week are the large
receipts OF corn oats and f. ed, about half Of
which have come in by river. This makes
prices rather steady, although not quotably
declined. In produce there are liberal
supplies Of butter, eggs and cheese and
dried fruits, and prices in these staples
ruled easy at unchanged quotations. In
groceries there is a steady but moderate
demand, and provisions are moving slowly
with large receipts OF green meats. The
jobhlng lines Of trade in general merchan-
disc are moving steadily, with prices gen.
elally steady and unchanged.
APPLES Remain in good demand with
a firm market and rather light supplies of
prime to choice stock. We repeat last
weeks figures. We quote at 81 50a3 50 for
prime to choice.
BEANS-lhe demand is moderate, and
trade is Iuiet at unchanged prices. We
quote ut - 0Oa2 IS for prime white navy;
other grades as to quality.
BUrTER-NO alteration in the dull and
sluggish character OF the market for com.
mon and low grade butter can be reported.
Strictly choice, well favored table quail
ties meet with the usual steady demand,
but on any qualities below prime, the trade
is thoroughly demoralized, and the ware
houses are piled full OF stock. We quote
prime 10 gilI.edged rolls at l5aiSc.
