Groceries.

The jobbing trade is featureless. Green coz
fee is firmly held by importers, and prices show
an upward tendency. Package coffee, how.
ever, fails to get out of the old ruts. Tea
speculation has waned of late, and transac-
tions are lighter than they were few weeks
ago. Markets are steady. There are no effects
of the new tariff as yet felt in grocery lines
with the exception of growing frmness in
lines of canned and foreign fruits. A rise is
looked for at an early day.
