We stated few days ago that the large ship
mcnts Of pork being made to New York were
probably forwarded by Cbicago holders. 1t is
now stated that most Of it has really been taken
BY prominent New York operator, the total Of
whose recent conslgnments Is not far short OF
10000 br1s.
The New York kilograms on rye, or some Of
them, seem to DC: mixed. They quote Western
at Csc for few days past, which we are inform
ed should be 61]4e; or &c at the outside. State
rye sells in the neighborhood Of Csc.
The continued cold weather Is causing fear,
In some quarters, for the safety OF the growing
grain, but these fears do not seem to make
much difference In prices OF corn. They may
have something to do with the strength in oats.
Hoar-frost vas reported to have been seen at
several points In the country Saturday morning,
but 1t was somewhat warmer during The day fol-
lowing. Ut course 1t IS known that the exces-
sve chill is largely local to the neighborhood OF
the lake shore.
The leading produce markets we're more irreg-
lar Saturday, averaging stronger, With more
doing. Provisions we're advanced in sympathy
with an improvement in hog quotations, and
also in consequence Of q much better shipping
demand for meats, with more inquiry for lard.
We note that shoulders we're especially wanted.
both for present and August delivery. Wheat
vas stronger for this month and easier for July.
There was some pressure to I'll June shorts.
The aggregate yet outstanding for this month
is estimated BY some at as much IS
100000 bu, though others claim that
the deal Is nearly all settled up. Corn
weakened early in sympathy with july wheat,
and perhaps also because freights were expected
to rule higher, but 1t strengthened as frost re-
ports came in and the current arrivals showed q
decrease. Oats were unusually excited, being
decidedly son the rampage at one time under

hibited little change. Freights by lake we're
quoted frmer, on the basis Of &c for wheat and
12@c for corn, by sail to Buffalo, as result Of
the advance in rail rates announced to take ef-
feet With the opening OF business this week.
The rail rate to New York will be 15c per 100
pounds on grain.
No specially new features were to be noted ii
connection with the dry-poods market. Trade
keeps up surprisingly we'll, and there are as yet
no signs of any softening of prices; indeed.
there arc indications OF continued advance.
The demand for staple and fancy groceries con-
tfnues of liberal proportions, aud the general
market matntains healthy tone. Yesterdays
changes were confined to q 4c advance In Rio
coffees, the supply Of which is very light, while
the demand is reported better than usual for
the time Of year. There was continued activity
in sugars, molasses, rice, and teas. Prices of
foreign and domestic dried fruits remain easy.
Fish were quoted steady, with light stocks and
4 good demand. Tie butter market was weak
and rather lower. Prices Of cheese also favored
The buyer. Oils, paints, and eolors we're un-
changed. There WAS fair demand for coal ut
b4.50 for the different sizes Of anthracite, at
!. IS for Erie, and at s3.01@3,25 for Erle and at
S3.00G325 for illinois. Leather was in fair de-
nand from manufacturers, and was firm.
The lumber market was fairly active and
'teady. The offerings OF cargoes were liberal,
md common stuff sold rather freely, prices |
angling the same as on other days Of the week. !
The yard market continues fairly active. The |
hipments consist mostly Of dry lumber, which
generally filled at the quoted figures. Green
5 dull and irregular. Wool was active and
rmer. The receipts are augmenting, but buy |
