ELECTION MARKETS.
WEEKLY REVEE w.

During the week there has been little varia-
ton in the volume of trade, though the mar
ket is very strong and business has firmly
held Its own against the excitement and po-
itical turmoil Immediately preceding a state
election. Prices, as rule, are quite firm, the
continuing strength in raw material contrib
utlng much to this result. In heavy hard
ware, which hes near the raw material, the
tendency toward slightly advanced quota
mons is perceptble. Manufacturers are pur-
suing conservative course and are not pro-
EueIng goods much in excess of the near
requirements of their trade. The jobbing
houses are well stocked up with large sup
pies of goods, which were purchased
prior to the advances of the past
lew months. While collections are
generally reported good there still
appears in some quarters disposition TO
take the time on which goods are sold instead
OF availing themselves of cash discounts
Groceries are very active indeed, and prices
are hrm and steady. Trade in this line
has been done largely by orders this week,
owing to the excitement in politics, which
has tendency to keep people at home.
While dry goods have maintained good
ste ady business, the market has felt the
effects of the warm weather quite seriously
and not so many buyers have been in the
market. The orde trade though has been
excellent. The drug market has been well
sustained and the business transacted during
the week has been heavier than usual at this
time. The changes in the quotations have
been very few indeed. and collections good.
Hardware is very active, more SO than ever
before, with prices steady. Below will be
found the quotations:
