The Business Situation Unchanged-Trade
Quiet-COllections Still Slow.
INDIANAPOLIS, Nov "a.
In the commercial situation there is little that
is new to note Trade moves along much in the
same rut of that of some days past. While, doubt
less the volume of business this month has been
in excess of that of November, 1884, it has not
reached expectations. 1t is quite probable that
in some departments expectations had been
placed too high Complaint is still heard of slow
collections; few days, doubtless, will
improve this matter. The provision mar
ket continues tame, and prices send
downward. Eggs and choice butter are
firm at quotations, and poultry Is
shade frmer than last week Budd & Co., in
their price current of to-day, say Of eggs; The
market rules quiet and without special chan ge.
Strictly fresh eggs are very scarce, while ice
house and held stock are plenty and sell slow.
In butter there is no change. Good roll ls about
all that will sell. Poultry-The market East is
still in very unsatisfactory condition Shippers
this year must not expect big prices, as the sup
ply in the country is larger than we have ever
known, and must be sold cheap to be used up.
Apples and vegetables are in large supply,
prices, except in potatoes, ranging low. The
wool market continues in strong position. just
at this time there is comparatively little handled

Gordon that at dinner at London
club one of the members jokingly
accused him Of secreting a bottle Of
wine in his pocket. Others observ-
ing that his pocket bulged out,
made bets that they could guess the
brand and challenge him to produce
the bottle. In indignation he drew
from his prckst prayer-book and

We are truly grateful to our friends
in different parts of the country for
sending usaccounts Of local occurren-
ces which take place in their respect

more or less interest to the public.
Young men or young ladies, or both,
will find it advantageous to write up
these locals once week, or once in

make it a point to condenSe their
ideas, and not spread them over a

Let us make few suggestions to
young beginners In the first place,
