TRADE AND COMMERCE.
Merchants Cheerful, Yet Cautious and Econ
Omizing at Every Point.

INDIANAPOLIS, March "a
Business is now run upon a more economical
basis, doubtless, than at any time for many
years While prices on most lines of goods are
steady and firm, the margins are small and the
purchasing of goods is largely to meet current
wants. Merchants are hopeful yet cautious,
running close to the Shore as the saying is The
poultry market is steady at quotations, while
eggs in larger amounts are weaker. Choice
butter scarce, prices firm; poor stuff not
wanted at any price. In groceries there is moth
ing new to note. Speaking of the business stu

the sh1inkage in values which has been going on
for the past two or three years, the enormous
the same time, and the phenomenally
bad weather during the past and pres
ent months. The general outlook is
certainly not unprOmising, though it may be ad
mitted that commercial prospects are not alto
gether rosy. IL may certainly be admitted that
in all human foresight the present year is preg-
nant with more hope for the commercial inter
ests of the United States than it is for those of
any other civilized country, after making all due
allowance for the drawbacks of an exciting
presidential campaign The period has arrived
when a material increase in general business
usually occurs. The necessaries of life are gen
orally cheap enough to encourage liberal con-
sumption, but competition in trade is so intense
that there is little prospect that either manu-
facturers or merchants will be able to enlarge
their margins Of profit to any appreciable extent,
and consequently conservative course is likely
to continue" The grain markets have been sub
]ected to but slight change with a moderate
legitimate business, Flour continues irregular,
and the market for most kinds lacks strength.
Wool continues dull, with prices barely steady.
Hides and leather are active and buoyant.
Raisins have advanced. Tobacco and hops are
quiet and unchanged. Hog products firm.
Drugs and dyes are quiet and generally steady.
Raw sugar is dull and lower; refined is fairly
active and steady. Molasses is lower. Coffee is
entirely nominal, with the market demoralized
for the moment. Tea is easier but quiet Rice
is dull Spices are dull.
