Cincinnati.


CIHCINSATr, April The past week has
been markedly exceptionally mild weather.
Farm work is well advanced, and work
is rapidly progressing. This is no doubt
stimulated by the high price OF all pro-
ducts, corn, for instance, being nearly
twice as valuable as year ago, and oats
l4@2Oc higher. There has been a better
tone in ali departments of business during
the week. Wholesale dealers are unusual
ly busy. Groceries continue active and
advancing. Dry goods show marked in
crease in activity and firm prices; The
volume of business, however, is not hardly
equal 70 what is usual at this season. Pig
iron maintains prices, but there Is dis
inclination to buy largely, and some accu-
mutation of stock. Manufactured iron re.
mains firm, with good demand. Leaf
tobacco fairly active. Germ unusually
active, reaching Sic, and closing at SOC.
Wheat is barely steady at former prices.
Oats have ia lien off under heavy receipts,
and closed at Sc. Whisky has been more
active than for some time past, with an adj
vance of lc.

New YORK, April There is more ami,
nation reported in commercial circles and
a larger business is being done in mer-

was hoped for Speculation in products
has assumed larger proportions than ever
before. For instance, nearly three times
as much wheat has been sold here In the
first three months OF 81 as in the same
period in 81, and to less extent the same
may be said OF other commodities Ihls
immense speculation is the worst feature
of the financial situation, and sound, pros
porous business suffers. No business OF
Importance was done to-day, and as the
week is broken one a detailed report
would not be OF great value.

with positive understanding that this is
only to last until the rest go in at 81, or
whatever the price may be. Not over l5O

works are running on the usual agreemen;
in force in their pits. Hackett 4 Rafferty,
are still out, and proposition from the
firm to pay 81 cents for east-bound coal
is said to have been refused by the
men. Local prices have not been affected
vet the small pits keeping up the supply.
The firm supplying the Pittsbu Gas
Works have thirteen days stock on hand.
The general feeling among operators is that
81 cents will be the accepted price, and
the present strike will not outlast the pres
