General Trade.

A somewhat sitter feeling prevails
in the values of corn, cornmeal and
oats, while bran is quiet. Hay very
fiat and in over supply for all classes
except strictly choice Western timo-
thy, which is not offering, and would
sell at from SIS to SIG per ton. Flour
quotations are fully sustained for the
grades which are moving, but low
classes are wholly nominal. The sup
ply is liberal. Several carloads of
p b potatoes changed hands Two days
ago at 50 per Dbl and 60c per bushel
In SKIS. The sale was between dealers,
and they have been held in store for
some weeks past awaiting buyer,
while figures have ruled below those
obtained. The feeling is therefore
reported a shade better for p BIS, but
other varieties are wholly nominal
except new from La, which are SOC
per Dbl lower. Other vegetables ex>
hibit no new features. The home
production is checking shipments of
nearly all classes. The movement in
cheese is very light and but little Of
any class is on the market, while
the demand has Stacked to
almost nothing. The country
butter trade varies, large amount of
the arrivals being SO milky that 10 to
lee par ID is a good price forit, though
choice we'll packed prairie butter will
sell at % to 25c, Ia chickens many
small sell at 81 to 81 80 per doz, Ehilc
well grown go at 50 so to So so, and
old range at from 50 to So % per doz,
the latter for choice fat hens. The
season is over for turkeys and geese
and nearly SO for ducks. Meats con-
tinue as at last report, though q shade
easier tone was reported at western
supply points. In eggs the feeling has
been still for several days and sales in
small pckgs are as high as 16c, though
chiefly at ID to l5c, Efforts to advance
lemons have been rather futile,ps sales
Of good are noted as low as SO to So 80
