Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1891-02-27
Groceries.


more active this week than last. After long
quiet it is hoped and believed that a better day
has dawned. Sugars have passed day with
out an advance, and probabilities are that
future changes will be in the other direction.
Canned goods have failed to come up to ex-
pectations of jobbers the past winter. Prices
passed beyond the average consumers ability.
and the amount used has been much less than
in the average season. All canned fruits are
weak and some have been reduced. as our
quotations will disclose.
