Country Produce-Jobbing Prices.

Country Produce-Jobbing Prices.
1t is difficult to keep pace with the upward
movement of the egg market. 1t was generally
thought by dealers that top had been reached
yesterday when prices reached &c per dozen in
job lots. But to-day markets are very firm at
25c per dozen, and at this price 1t is impossible
to fill orders. From present outlook. Easter
eggs will be higher than for many years. Re-
taisrs who sold at 2Oc yesterday are sorry since
they have had to replace stock at 25c per dozen.
While eggs are up, creamery butter is down,
and one will about offset the other in the line
of household expenses. There is an active de-
mand for potatoes, and tendency Of markets is
upward. Good stock cannot now be laid down
here and sold at profit under 81 25 per bushel.

Hardwood Floors.

Dealers in carpets will not be pleased to learn
that they are likely to be less generally used in
the future than in the past A prominent
builder yesterday told how this is being broug It
about. He said: with the use of hardwood
floors, carpets are passing out of extensive use,
and rugs. which may be easily taken up, are
taking their place. Occasionally rooms must
be whitened and papered, but this is simple
matter, and proposes no such household panic
as the lifting of carpets amid clouds of dust.
Paint or hard woodwork which is kept system
atically and easily clean, needs no going over
yea ly or semi-yearly, except in case of re-
painting or re-oiling.

AT A STATIONARY POINT.
Nothing to Warrant an Advance or a De-
cline at Philadelphia.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO TEE DISPATCH,
PHILADELPHIA March 20.-The condition
Of the iron business continues very unsatis-
factory, and there are no indications of an
early improvement. While the Western re-
ports are dscouraging. matters in the South
look little brighter. The local market presents
no change. and no new feature can be found
IN any department of the trade, nor do we
look for any for some time to come
There is nothing to warrant Just
now either an advance or decline, and the
chances may be said to be about equal. There
Is no question that the output has been largely
CurtaIled. and that consumption is still large
but whether these facts will increase prices de-
pends almost wholly upon the settlement of
the coke strike. If early, reduction is oon-
ndenty expected, and the longer the settlement
is delayed Just much brighter grow the pros
poets for advance.
Prices are abOutthe same as last week for
piE iron, and muck bars are wobblng around
so 50627 delivered. Business is gradually i'm
proving in steel rails, and prices hold firm at
$40 at the mills. Steel billets are dull and are
quoted at SIS 25929 delivered. Bar iron is
steady at l751lS5c for best refined. but the
demand has not increased. Skelp iron is quiet
at L75c for Crooved and LS5c for sheared. In
plates the business shows a little or no change,
either in prices or demand.

Overcoming Difficulties.

The building trades have had unusual difficult
ties to contend with so far this year, prolonged
bad weather being one of them This has
greatly embarrassed. and in many cases sus-
pended, all work on foundations and walls.
The season is so far advanced that a change for
tho better cannot be long deferred. Contracts
in the hands of architects and builders insure
active business with the coming of settled
weather. There is plenty of time left to equal
or break last years record.

Weather and outside news we're alike un-
favorable to business Stocks were dull and
weak. The failure of the Keystone National
Bank. of Philadelphia, caused some comment
and was bearish factor. Being one of the
weakest in the city, the effect of the suspen-
sion will be small and local. 1t is thought no
Pittsburg interest is involved.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATCH.I
CINCINNATI March 20-Rogers, Brown &
Co. say: The past week has been devoid OF
any feature of especial interest The heavy
reductions of stocks OF coke irons and the con-
tInuance of the coke strike, do not cause any
advances. The reports from Pittsburg regard
ing finished product are not OF an encouraging
nature aud buyers OF raw materials are very
conservative. There is no pressure to sell
Southern iron, but consumers find no difficulty
in getting supply. The furnaces continue
firm IN their views. but further advance is
hardly TO be looked for unless the railroads and
other large purchasers come into the markets,
