The Indiana State sentinel. [volume] (Indianapolis) 1868-1895, 1877-04-25

The general markets are plainly active and
in all departments Of trade fair business is
reported.
The dry goods market is steady and mer-
chants report good trade. Prices are under.
going no essential changes. The New York
Bulletin of Monday reviews the market as
follows:
Cotton Goods.-ih he market has presented no
new features OF special i'm pOrtance, and as a
rule prices are well sustained, though it quite
probable that some additional revisions on
brown and 1leached gooas win be made about
goods now held by jobbers ION memoran-
dumS' Tickings are shade more active and
few numbers of ConestOga's, etc., are closely
sold up to production. Denims and dyed ducks
are fairly held in all the best makes, and
stocks of these fabrics are exceptionally small.
Prints.-There has been an irregular demand
for fancy prints. and while the general moVe-
ment continues slow beyond doubt, few
makes have been in very fair demand. White
ground aid light fancy prints in neat figured
effects were taken in small lots to a fair
amount, and buff and pink prints were in
moderate request. Shirting prints have been
lately reduced to &c, and cretonnes, cambrics,
ETC., redoing fairly in jobbers' hands.
Ginghams-There has been a well sustained
demand for the best makes of dress ginghams,
and staple gtnghams were taken in small lots
q far amount. The Johnson Manufactur-
ing Cos; oook-foid glnghams continue sold
Marseilles Quilts.-There has been a steady
movement In these goods, and prices OF the
best makes are firmly maintained.
Dress Goods.-Black alpacas have been rath-
er more active, and there vas a light hand to-
mouth demand for plain colored and figured
alpacas. Cotton dress goods were in limited
request, and prices continue somewhat ir-
regular.
The provision market to-day was very firm
with an advance in prices, but the demand is
nnimportant.

market for sugars and coffee we take the Ioi-
lowing from the Daily Bulletin of Tuesday:
Raw sugar has been more active at an adj
vance of &c during the past week, the closing
quotations for fair TO good refining being ga
9llc This advance has been caused mainly
by large increase in the ira e in refined and
the consequent necessity of rehners entering
the market for further supplies of the raw pro-
duet, though the rise has been In part due TO
continued advices rom Cuba, estimating a
per cent and also to a verihcation of the
statements made some months ago that the
European beet root yield of this season would
fall considerably below that of lS75-7G. The
result and the comparisons are placed as fol-
lows.

deficiency IN STOCK compared Win last year,
22,l7S tons, or 81 per cent.
Refined has been active and advancing; the
demand has been in part for export, stimu-
lated by higher prices in England. Powdered,
granulated and crushed closed on Saturday at
ll149ll1Sc.
Rio coffee has been in moderate demand at
last weeks G2Oc gold for or
binary to prime invoices. The Rio advices
have reported a firm market, but larger re-
ceipts and the London kilograms have quoted
a decline there of Is per cwt within a weeH.
The foreign advices have therefore on the
whole been unfavorable. They have had no
decided influence, however. There has still
been a scarcity of the better grades here, and
this fact has restricted trade, not only
as regards Rio, but other descriptions
of coffee. There is fair supply
lower grades. OF mild coffee there is but
moderate quantity here and that mostly COM
mon and not wanted. Maracaibo closed at
lS9l912c; Laguayra the same; st. Domingo l69
l6%, and Java 2S@24c, all gold for invoices.
Mexican is quiet at lSql9c gold, with stock
here of about Zoo bags, held by importers.
The culture of coffee in Mexico is annually
making large progress owing to the peculiar
advantages of soil and climate possessed by
that country. The exports from Vera Cruz
alone have for series of years been as fol-
lows:
