GENERAL TRADE.

Arrivals DY rlVer from above yesterday
were insignificant, and the market was dull
without single change of interest. The st.
Louis Republican Ot Monday. had the follow
ing: "A city market circular of Saturday
advises fruit shippers that this market is now
so well supplied with all kinds of fruit, and
prices are becoming so low that shipment here
of common and inferior, of unripe or over
ripe-that is likely to be out of condition on
arrival, cannot be sold for enough to pay cost
and charges. The leading markets on
change Saturday were not sparkling with
life, the trading disposition beng quite in6If
ferent, and market values of grain weak and
OF descending inclination. Provisions were
less buoyant than Of late, but not susceptible
to any quotable decline; but all grain was
dull, and In most instances weak and lower
to sell. la the whole view the markets were
not IN favorable phase, yet practically were
subject to no conspicuous declines, although
il there has been anything like disposition
10 buy actively, from the tone Of the market
lower prices would have been the sine qua
non of sales. Wheat for cash was largely off
in view OF buyers, but sellers were firm so far
above that not a sale Of grades was consum-
mated"
