The Trade Of tho Week Opens Under More
Favorable Auspices.
INDIANAPOLIS. April ia cheerful
sun and more springlike temperature had a
good effect on trade to-day. The morning
trains brought In large number of buyers,
and almost without exception they speak
able. In the main prices ruled firm. The
dry-goods men are not disposed to make
any concessions in prices to force sales. SO
strong is the dry goods situation generally.
The wool market East. however is easier
In its tone. The Boston Journal, excellent
authority on wool, says. in Its issue of Sat-
urday last: 'The market has been dull
for wool the past week and the sales small.
amounting to only 1,566,6OO pounds of all
kinds. Stocks of nearly all kinds of wool
here. except Ohio and Michigan fleeces. are
small. and therefore prices are sustained,
but as noticed for some weeks past. there
is disposition to force sales of Ohio and
Michigan wool, and the tendency of the
market on these grades is downward. In
other grades there has been no change in
prices. and the market Is quite steady.
The demand is expected to rule light for
some weeks to come. as manufacturers are
well supplied with theraw material, and are
actually in need. The woolen-goods situa-
tion offers very little inducement for manu-
facturers to speculate in wool There is not
much information In regard To the new clip"
Everything in the produce line rules firm to-
day. Receipts Of poultry are light. and
prices consequently strong at the sdvance
of Saturday. Fruits and vegetable of the
season are in light supply and prices rule
firm. and on many articles at figures which
make the article come under the head of a
ha nj ma ar.
kets are both in strong position at the recent
advances in prices The seed market is
active, and all descriptions firm In price.
