Groceries.

The coffee situation is very firm and jobbers
here wonder that there has been no advance in
packages. Sugars are also strong enough to go
up higher. The movement of general groceries
continues active. with prices practically un.
changed. Dried and canned fruits are suffer-
ing from the reaction, consequent upon specu-
latiye influences which sent prices above real
values. Markets in this line are in an unset
tied condition.
