Closing Up the Years Business-The Future
Brighter Than the Past.


INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. Is.
The wholesale men are winding up the years
business. The opinion prevails that better re-
suits will be shown in the aggregate than from
the business of 1884, yet the volume of trade fol
1880 has been Disappointing There is feeling
that business is on, more solid, healthy basis
than at the close of 1884, and that the year 1856
opens under much more favorable auspices than
did 1888 Country roads are in good condition
ana farmers are getting their corn
ana hog crops on the market,
ana with this there is distribution
OF money going which reacts favorably on
trade. Farmers are paying the country mer-
cnant, and he in turn, the wholesale mer-
chant Dry goods men, boot and shoe merchants
ana dealers In hardware report good trade for
December. The druggists. as we'll, are doing a
good business. Dealers in confectionery and
fancy goods are now experiencing their harvest;
this week will about wind up their trade. Inc
provision market is tame; prices still low. The
produce men are experiencing rather dull times.
Butter and poultry are a little irmer out no
higher. The apple market is sick; all dealers are
overstocked. Vegetables are meeting more
ready sale. Prices firm.
