GENERAL TRADE.

GENERAL TRADE.
There were many strangers in the city yes
terday, which gave some of our places of busl-
ness a more animated appearance. Corn
was almost the only thing moving in feed
and that trade appears to become quieter. A
two-thousand sack lot that arrived was not
put on the market, but ti5ings were received
of the steamer Mollie Moore having left with
corn, and lots could be bought ''to arrive"
on her at 46c. Hay is in little demand
figures are too high; some good prairie hay
would probably command attention for local
consumption. Cornmeal was lower, with a
moderate business doing. Few potatoes
were shipping, az arrivals were slender.
More apples came in than before, but not in
suficIency to make shipping active. The
inspiring trap tap" of the busy hammer was
but little heard.
Quotations beIOiO are for round lots at the
landing aud the railroad depOts, and in
clude neither drGyage, storage, nor other
expenses outside Of the bare freight and
charges up to drriUGL. JObbing and store
sales are at higher rates, as they include
drayage, storage, and profit Of the dealer.
