feeling Is generally satisfactory, There Is
better demand for heavy woolens The
upward tendency in prices in the grain
trade has been arrested by the Chicago
troubles, and there has been slight drop
in the market. This has not yet been re-
covered, but prices were steady and market
firm at the close,
0atsare exceptionally strong. The cotton
market is weak, with slight fluctuations and
u downward tendency. Wool has been
regular, steady and a good trade, There Is
good feeling for the future.
Petroleum is dull and unsettled without
material change. Freights, with the. ex.
cephon Of petroleum, drag heavily,
The business that is being done In seed
leaf tobacco Is the best that has been
transacted for many years, and the dealers
are making money. The cigar manufac.
tures are all doing well, and have orders
ahead.
In American pig iron there Is considera-
bio inquiry, but no large transactions have
been reported, The stocks Of leading
brands are light, and II Is difficult to get
orders filled for any amount for immediate
