ADVANCE even for known wants in the future, pre-
ferring to wait until engaged tonnage comes to
hand As all immediate necessities are probably
nroyided Tor there is not likely to be any movement
of consequence until more vessels arrive. Last
weeks operations appear to have satisfied all needed
requirements, for the market so far this week has
NOT eviDeed any activity. The absence of all specu
latiye feeling adds to the general dizziness. En-.
plish telegraph advces report the growth of young
wheat as having been checked by sharp winds and
frost Trade was said to be limited, and inferior
qualities difficult to sell. Liverpool quotations

CoRN-The market is unsettled. Large arrivals
fron the lower coast cause buyers to hold back
Sellers doubtful as to the propIiety OF making
concessions, though for the present generally de-
Ginning to accept lower than our quotations. ANY
further large supplies would necessarily break the

FRUrT-Three carloads of Sicily Lemons are said
to be en- route. At present the market is well fur
nished with this variety. Oranges are moving on
better, though there is no improvement in prices

EGGs-Operators generally expected some buoy

turbed. The consumption next week will probably
be quite large, the demand being generally more
active for a few days previous to Easter day. We

PRovIsIoNs-The market for meat products Is
moderately active and prices are unchanged. There
Is an increasing demand, which comes largely from
Oregon. The inquiry from the interior Of our own
State as is usual at this season, is only moderate
The present prices of raw product are relatively
higher than when prepared for Market and ad-
vanced prices are likely to rule unless more
abundant supply of the former comes to

enough anyway to cause some little competition.
Other purchasers will be along in due time. The
receipts so far this season aggregate about 5000
bales and stocks are accommodating. The views OF
holders are in advance of buyers, and business Of
course IS checked in consequence. Some small sales
are rep 4rted at q range OF 158l7o for six months
staple, and l79l9c for twelve months
