fOyFICE OF THE WHEELING REGISTER,
TUESDAY, April 80. !
The flour and grain market, to quote
the expression of the leading dealer in
that line, is $50 dull that it can't well be
dullcr. It's worse than even last week,
for then we could make sales, but now
we are doing nothing" This seems to
be the common complaint among the
grain men, and as the new crop promises
to be an unusually heavy one. they do
net hope for better figures unless there Is
some unusually heavy demand upon it
from abroad.
The grocery trade is still lively, as are
also the wholesale dry goods and drug
trades
Provisions are brisk and selling well
this week, and the outlook is q little
more hopeful.
Wool is still dead and fiat.
Small grocerymen and other retailers
are cheerful and doing brisk trade.
The leather market is also looking up,
and sales are good.
Produce is selling well and large ship
ments are beng received by the big
brokers, and the markets are well sup
piled.
