WHEELING, TUESDAY, February 2.
The principal changes in the grocery
market this week are noted among provis-
ions, canned goods and sugars. There is a
continued good demand for all descriptions
Of hog products; IL Is unusually good for
the season Of the year, which may be at
tributed 70 the low prices, which stimulate
consumption. Sugar-cured hams al 94c
are certainly very cheap-this Is the
wholesale price. Now with the advent OF
the spring season near at hand the con-
sumption will be considerably increased.
Coffee continues stiff ana good roasting
grades are hard to get. The price Of roast
ed coffee will hereafter be established az
New York, and the price there with the
cost Of transportation added thereto will
make the price here. Sugars continue dull
and prices weak. The rice syndicate,
there is reason to believe, has been con-
summated in view Of the fact that prices
have been advanced at many sources Of sup
ply.
