A Good Trade In Progress with the More
Comfortable Weather.
INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. s.
In all departments to-day there was q brisk
trade in progress. Buyers were in, in eoodly
numbers. and purchased freely, and the trade
Of the present month promises to be very salts
factory, In prices there were but few changes.
Sugars have taken on q steadier tone and the
distribution continues large. Coffees rulo steady
for the time being, but the future OF the market
seems somewhat uncertain. The New York
Bulletin says: ''Thers does not appear to be
mauy new suggestions to make on the general
market for Brazil. A line Of inquiry and tenta-
tive bidding from a very desirable portion Of in
terror custom continues in satisfactory form and
affords strong encouragement to the belief that
it wi II be followed in due time by q respectable
and stimulating volume of actual orders, repre-
SCI ing good solid consumption. There
is also evidence that the barricade
of widely divereing differences of
opinion between jobbers and importers is in
course Of demolition, and that opportunity for
more liberal handling Of goods will be presented.
In the matter of price it will probably require
some little time to bring about an adjustment.
but present indications seem to show that the
speculative element ID pretty we'll tired out and
not inclined TO create mucn. II any, disturbance,
so that by fair concessions on the part Of both
buyers and sellers dealing 10 actual goods, there
is a reasonable basis to hope for . healthier
legitimate business" Dry goods men had a
good trade. The large stocks and the varied
character are attracting a good deal of attention.
1t is said that indianapolis dry goods houses
have never before opened for the fall trade so
large and complete stocks. The produce mar
kets are active. Both apples and peaches are
frmer in tone, but no higher in price qnotably.
Hens and chickens firm and in good demand.

stubborn fighting all the way down. Wheat
closed fairly steady about sc nndsr last night.
In corn the range was gu to narrow aud

Tuesday. Oats were quite firm, and, independ-
ent of the earlier markets. for other grains prices
show q small Improvement Provisions were

Der dropped from 8. 40c to 8. l5c, and closing sales
