Very Quiet Day, with No Special
Features To Be Noted.


Features To Be Noted.
INDIANAPOLIS, July %. q
Trade has been very quite to-day. though not
to the extent of dullness. Dry goods are still
firm; future purchasers will, in all probability,
pay higher prices than rule at present Grocer
les are very steady No changes in quotations
are made. Eggs and poultry are only moderately
active, Receipts of eggs are quite liberal, but
rs a large percentage go into cold storage the
Eastern markets are not oyerstocked, and prices
are maintained. Poultry is also steady in price,
Trade in fruits and vegetables is dull and the
margin of profit so small that the trade is not at
all satisfactory. Trade in flour is dull, and it is
difficult to effect sales Of any magnitude for any
quality, though the depression is greatest in high
grade -four. Our local mills are running we'll up
to their full capacity, but mostly orders from
Europe and on very small margin of profit.
