Options are slightly lower ana very weak, in
consohance with Eastern and foreign mar
kets. Nothing can be predicted one way or
the other Wheat sales covered 2,iOO tons
this morning on Change, as follows: Eight
hundred tons of May at from 81 351a 10
81 355s, and 1900 tons of buyer December,
at from 81 SO TO 81 321s
Barley was correspondingiy weak aud in
animate. Only 800 tons Of May options were
sold, at from 92c TO 92lac.
Other cereals and mill products possess no
new or interesting conditions.
Dealers report a better feeling for Butter,
and sales were made as nigh as 50 cents for
fancy creamery. Although the movement is
heavy, receipts are so large the market does
not clean up. Cheese is fairly steady in price,
but not active. Eggs are weaker, quotations
occasionally being shaded to effect sales.
Aside from Turkeys, the Poultry market is
easy. Buyers want Turkeys only, and their
wants are wen supplied, receipts being heavy.
Game is considerably lower, under light in
quiry and heavy receipts. Quail is about the
only game that holds up.
Garden truck is neglected. Onions are in
fair demand. Potatoes are firm.
Choice fruits are scarce, higher prices than
quotations being paid for prime fruit. Grapes
arrived less freely to-day. and the demand was
a little better. Wine Grapes are nearly eX-
hausted But few ounces are seen. Other
kinds Of fruits are steady. Raisins are in good
shipping inquiry.
Provisions are stiff.
