Groceries.

| The grocery situation is unchanged. The
| downward movement Of sugars has been ar
rested, and prices are steady. Package coffee,
though higher than at the beginning of the
week. is relatively lower than the green article.
| Wholesale grocers report an active movement,
but very close margins of profit. For a year
past sugar has been the grocer's best card. OF
late sugar is mighty u1certain, and only the
greatest caution will prevent grocers from
| dropping former gains.
