INDIANAPOLIS MARKETS.
Trade Rather Slew Awaiting Warmer Wealth
er-The Honey Market Easing Up.

er-The Honey Market Easing Up.
INDIANAPOLIS April 20.
For three days past trade has been rather slow,
which is doubtless due to the coolt nperature
which has prevailed. The more active grain
markets would naturally help other branches OF
business were the conditions more favorable.
There is no trace OF unhealthiness In any de-
psrtment Of trade, but unexplainable dull
ness Tsx-payine tins is over and the money
market locally Is already easier. and aside from
the unseasonablsness of the weather there
seems to be no obstruction to trade. Prices on
nearly all lines Of goods rule strong. Dry goods
men claim to be an exception TO the allegation
that trade is dull. but it should be borne in mind
that there is one less Wholesale dry goods house
than in April, 1887. In groceries there is
strong tone to prices. but the hand-to mouth
policy of buying goods has been and
is still pursued to an extent
which greatly decreases the volume of
trade at times when is should be large and act
ive bat In the twelve months the sales agere-
gate as much as they would were the wholesale
way OF buying goods INDUCED in. Retail gro
GERS are keeping close to the sh ore and are pay
ing their bills more promptly and satisfactorily
than in years past This certainly is favorable
indication, and one which the wholesale mer-
chants may well encourage. Indications are
that the commission make some
money on southern products this spring. The
backwardness of the spring North will give q
market to many articles grown in the South
which meet with DOOR or short sale when the
season in Indiana and Illinois il more advanced.
Eggs and poultry are unchanged in price Today.
but on largely increased arrivals prices tend
lower. Butter is steadier in tone and meeting
with good sale. The -four market is taking bet
ter shape and higher prices in prospect in
the future As TO wool in the East, where
it finds the largest sale, the situation grows
worse rather than better. Eastern papers say
that there ID wide gao between the prices at
which woods are held and those which of
Tered, and when there transactions it Is
usually the seller who makes the concessions.
Local receipts show an Improvement The in
spections for the past twenty-four hours are
forty-two cars against thirty-two for the pre-
ceeding twenty-four hours. Yesterday the Offer
ings from the country were quite liberal. and
our dealers bought freely. To day there is next
to nothing offering, although enough was
bought for present wants, yet the higher bidding
for on the call would seem to indicate that
the trade had their appetite whetted, rather than
satisfied by the trade of yesterday. While red
wheat Is quoted on the call board slightly off.
yet the demand is fully az good yesterday,
while Offering il nil. Oats market is steady.
Feed is quoted lower, although demand contin-
ues good:
