Trade Continues Brisk.
INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. IL.
There was nothing Of an important character
developed in local commercial circles to-day.
Trade continues much the same as noted the
preceding days of this week. with the outlook
favorable to still further improvement. The
corn crop is already out of reach Of damage
from frost in the southern halves OF Ohio, In
diana, Illinois, Missouri and Kansas. In the
grocery market the active demand for refined
sugar has been the most important feature.
This is the result of greater activity with the
canning industry which is a large consumer at
this season of the year for putting up the fruit
crop which is now coming n and for this reason
September has usually been the most active
month Of the year for the sugar trade. Up to
within short TIME, however. the con-
sumption has shown but moderate
increase compared with previous years, so
that any substantial improvement in this
respect although not of special significance, is
most acceptable, because it has been so long
expected. Prices are relatively much higher
THAN year ago at this time. but this is because
OF prospective shortage of the European beet
crop, which has come to be the controlling feat
ure with respect to the worlds production of
sugar. The consumption of coffee far
Indicated by the warehouse deliveries, is consd
an abundant crop In Brazil, which is the chief
source OF supply, is not favor of higher prices
Tor the immediate future Tea continues dull,
out Joooers report fair distributve demand.
In other lines of distributive trade the movement
is reported fairly active. and for the most part
the markets have ruled steady The poultry
market is tame. Prices weak, at our quotations.
Eggs still tend higher on an increasing demand.
Inc range OF prices on fruits and vegetables is
still low
The local market was in much the same posi-
ton to-day as on Thursday. The Board of Trade
