Groceries.

The uncertain quantity in this department of
trade is sugar. Jobbers who are heavily laden
are anxious to unload before April l and are
cutting on rates. Sugar prices are merely
nominal and will be until the &c tax is re.
moved. Coffees are firm. The movement of
general groceries is active, but prices are un-
changed.
