Groceries.

The weakness Of sugar, already noted in this
column. still continues and prices are a shade
lower in Eastern markets. Coffees arc fairly
steady. The wholesale grocer trade is scarcely
as active as it was few weeks ago. The hand
to-mouth policy Is being followed by retail
dealers, as IS natural when money has such a
value as now. There is little probability of any
active movement until after January settle
ments.
