FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL

Review of Portland Wholesale Market
FOR THE WEEK ENDING Dee. 81
The market for Flour throughout the week has
been strong and buyers are operating with more
confidence. AIllers have advanced prices from ID
to 35c % Dbl, and the tendency of the market is
still upward Corn and Oats firm at full prices.
In Provisions we notice fairly steady market for
Lard, but Pork is easier. Groceries have been
quiet and steady. Not much change in Produce;
Onions are 25s higher, Butter is frmer for choice
grades, with Eggs steady and unchanged, and APP
pies are dull with less doing. In Metals &c., Solder
has declined 1c to l4@15c. A large pool sale of
Copper is reported. The Copper market is Dc.
pressed in all parts of the world, and supplies offer
ing appear to be in excess of the consumption. In
Cooperage the market is frmer for Sugar Sawed
Shoooks now quoted at 85@9oc. Linseed, Boiled
and Sperm Oils are lower. Fresh Beef is steady;
sides at 6G8Ac q ID, hind quarters 40 7@10c
fore quarters 56615c rounds with TANKS 612t97o
rumps and loins 10@l5c, rumps at 10@1sc, loins
10@18c, rattes 5@6c, backs at 699c, chucks BIG
&c. short rib cuts 10d12c Business in dry fish has
been slack and is likely to continue so until the
middle of January, when dealers look for some inn
provement. Mackerel are also dull; nothing doing;
stock on this market about 10000 bbls, and about
the same in Gloucester, while at Boston and New
York the supply is light. For fresh fish prices du-
ring the week ranged from 9s@5c " ID in fare lots
for Cod and Haddock, but under the influence of
increased receipts lower figures prevailed, Shoresh
selling To-Day at 4c The fishing schooner Ellen w.
Sawyer arrived this morning from Cape Shore with
a cargo of 40, 900 TBS fresh fish; the Cod sold for
ga % ib and Haddock SAC Two Gloucester YES
sells landed small fares;of about 15, 900 Tbs each.
