ST.. PAUL, Sept. 20, 1882. A
There Is really but little occasion for I
concerning The markets this :
week. There has been no material change
since our last report, either in the general
condition of the market or in quotations. q
Every department is busy, and orders are
coming in more rapidly than at any pre- Il
vious time. Butter is shade strong |
eggs are rather quiet but steady, fir r.
little weaker, game Fl 30 hisas
quiet,malt lower, hops higher md strnno
raisins are lower,dry goode .~,sYNort oharna
caiomel has advanced e. agANlv, oil sassafras
is firmer, baled hay weaker. dressed roea,s
are steady live S ..ock unchanged.
In regard to vconav moY.ars tho r,s,o

c1ering currency from the East to rneet the |
demands. Exchange is at discount be-

THY of wheat as they have been able to
haul to market. Country merchants will
| reap their harvest as soon as these pay
ments have been made and additional
grain brought in for sale. The demand
for money continues active, and banks are
responding to all legitimate calls from
regular customers. Outside paper is be-
ing generally Disseminated against.
Counter business is good and shows in
creased volume as the season advances.
Tho promises of the season are being re-
allied, and our business men are doing as
we'll as the most sanguine hoped for.
