lul, tho result OF continuously favorable
weather, good promises for the crops, and
tho improved demand for scasonablc goods.
Apprehcnsions that n crisis was impending
seen, 10 llave diminished in tho conlem-
plation OF tho vast sum to DO realized from
the almost unboundcl production which
VIC seem now to DO on tho eve Of. The
money marke.s,ill continues easy. Stocks
are rather lively. In the dry good trade
generally some dullncss prevails, but things
arc not very bad. &
The grain market is werk and tending
generally downward. III wheat there has
been considerable Of u decline, especially
III June options. Corn nnd oats arc more
sthble. The )ar1 and pork market Is strong.
In wool there Is nothing Of special interest
to note. In petroleum, last weeks i'm
pFovenen. has dropped rapidly, reaching
tho low point Of 59c und u fraction for
crude oil. I so. ~ nj Ils. ;.
ihc market for American pig iron is
quiet though there is u fair demand for
raw irons The effects OF the strikes are
ilardIy visible here There Is good deal
Of inquiry for Scotch ply, though us usual,
sales are light. Prices ire firm with no
pressure TO sell There Is little new bust
ness IN iron and steel rails, and there is
little or no demand for old rails. In coffee,
the New York market is slightly impaired,
due mainly to local causes The consump.
tive demand is lair, bat it is believed in
view oil the new crop coming forward aud
the enormous amount OF coffee held in
Europe, that even the present lox prices
cannot be maintained long. n
