Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1889-12-21

Sugar is very weak, and another drop Is in
prospect. Coffee options are still tending up
ward. but packages fail to rise. The movement
of general groceries is quiet as it always is
prior to January settlements. The disposition
to reduce stocks and begin the new year with a
minimum quantity of goods on hand has a
marked effect in curtailing trade in all jobbine
lines.
