Groceries.

The movement Of general groceries is very
active. Volume of trade was never better in
this city than it is right now. Sugars are weak
and the drift is toward lower prices. Coffees
are steady, and latest advices from the East
are favorable TO bulls. The new tariff bill
which bids fair TO pass. will have depressing
effect on sugar in the view of dealers. The ef
feet Of the tariff on canned goods will be to ele
vate prices owing to increased duty on tinplate
Canned peas and mushrooms will 60 up 80 per
case when the new tariff goes into operation.
The advance in Colman's mustard will be 13c a
dozen. and breakfast cocoa will be advanced &c
per pound. All our jobbers will be happy when
the tariff question is settled one way or the
other for year or two to come.
