TRADE AND COMMERCE..
The Business of the Month Opens Under
Favorable Auspices.

INDIANAPOLIS, Feb. l.
The cheerful sun and pleasant temperature
really gave considerable life to trade. Travelling
statesmen came in with good supply Of orders,
and report country merchants as showing a dis
position to purchase more freely. As the first
month of the year has passed without any seri-
GUS break in prices, or any financial panic,
confidence is being restored, and the
feeling is becoming more general
that the business of the country
is rapidly getting upon healthy basis. With
favorable weather a good trade is looked for
this month. The aggregate of sales in January
is footing up quite satisfactorily in the dry goods
leather hardware and grocery branches of
trade. We have no important changes to note in
prices to-day. The scarcity of fresh eggs con
tinues. and fancy prices are the order of the
day. In regard to butter there has been little
or no change in the situation for some DAYS;
there is a fair demand for the best qualities but
poor stock does not appear to be wanted at any
price. Beans continue fairly active and the re
cent advance is still maintained. There is an
increased jobbing demand for pota-
reduced stocks the market is frmer but
prices remain unchanged The warmer weather
has improved the demand somewhat for foreign
fruits but as yet there is no Improvement in pri
ons, and prices are weak at quotation. We have
to report continued strong coffee market, and
higher prices for roasted may be Looked for
within the next few days. --latest advices from
Rio report daily receipts there at less than 5000
bags per day, about 5000 bags below the daily
consumption in this country. 1t is also worthy
of mention that coffee is higher at Rio than it Is
at New York, and it follows, therefore, that
sooner or later there will be change at one end
or the other. Sugars easy and slow, but prices
remain without quotable change. Rice is firm
and lake fish higher Canned goods continue
somewhat demoralized

The local market is in much the same firm
tone as for several days past Dealers are read

Change. The Board of Trade Price Current
says Of wheat: No change in the bids and in
quiries confined principally to cash dealers
Offerings very scarce, either because of absence
of stock the want of desire to sell by our local
dealers. The visible supply shows the effect of
light receipts at all points, in the large reduction
of $40, 05S bushels This will probably stimulate
markets generally, as the large amount of stock
in sight has enabled the bears TO hold quotations
down for some time in spite of the most per-
sistent bull movement this country has ever
SEEN Flour still continues dull, and mills every
where are either stopped altogether or running

The game advertised for this afternoon
has been postponed until tomorrow,
owing to the game between the Hus-
sars and Company B of the Guards.
The park had been engaged for this game
previous TO the arrangement between the
Oglethorpes and Stars. When the Stars
telegraphed on Saturday night that they
would play the 0glethOrpes here on Mon
day and Tuesday, Manager Bohan went
to Capts. Schley and Elliott Of the Hussars
and Guards mines and asked them to
defer their game, as the Stars had arrang-
ed to play the Clnches in Augusta on
Wednesday and Thursday, and would
be unable to remain over later
than Tuesday night, hecessitating the
surrender of the game If the
park could not be obtained to-day.
The Captains of both che military teams,
after conference, refused to yield their
right to the park, as the game had been
advertised and all the arrangements made.
Manager Bohan Immediately telegraphed
the Captain of the Clinches asking if
they would not postpone their game ar
ranged for Wednesday, so as to al
low the Stars to remain here on
that day, and received reply last night
that the arrangement was satisfacto-
~. The Stars will remain over
to-day and play the OglethOTpes to-mOr-
row afternoon.
The telephone lines were extended to
the park yesterday, and Manager Valleau
had clerk and corps of messengers on
duty during the game. At the end of
each inning bulletins were sent to the
Western Union telegraph office and for
Marded to Atlanta and Columbus.
