PRODUCE MARKET.
The Wheat Market Supplied and
Prices Declining.
Potato Prospects GIoomy-Butter Market I'm
proYing-Corn Not Equal to the De-
mand-0ats in Demand.

The market is fairly well supplied with
wheat, and prices are declining; while
some dealers are looking for an advance,
there is nothing in sight that would war
rant US in the assertion that such would be
the case. Unless an outside demand IL
created prices will in all probability re-
main steady. Quotations are ranging from
60 to so cents, according to grade and
quality.
Barley-With an advance in oats and
corn there seems to be little more de-
msnd for cracked barley than there has
been for the past month.
Hay-The hay market continues very
dull, with no prospect for an Improvement.
Notwithstanding the oleomarge-
rine is still arriving the butter market is
slightly improving. Good Utah butter be-
Ing now in fair demand, but it should be
borne IN mind that it must be good in order
to meet with favor and compete with the
artificial stuff with which the market is
well supplied.
Oats-The market for grain is at present
IN very unsatisfactory condition so
much so that buyers are almost afraid TO
venture purchase, thinking perhaps that
someone may be able to do little better.
Again some firms measure their profits by
the volume of business, which is some
times very deceptive. For example, if one
hrm can make profit of $40 on car of
oats while another makes but 81 1t is evil
dent that the latter must do four times the
volume of business of the former while
their profits remain the same. Again pat
rons do not always take into consideration
the GU lity OF the grain. A sack of oats Is
sack OF oats, whether it be white, black,
or IN xed, wild or time. Our retail selling
price Is Sl.60 per cwt., while our wholes ale
price is 81. So
Corn.-The supply of corn in our local
markets seems hardly equal TO the demand.
This is probably owing TO the fact that the
commodity is advancing in the east from
whence our supply is drawn, and shippers
are 10th 10 buy on a rising market unless
indications point to still greater advance,
which seems hardly probable at present
writing. Prices are varying so much that
it is quite impossible to give any quotations
except our own which are as follows:
Cracked, wholesale, $145 per cwt.; whole,
$1.40.
Potatoes-We are unable to give any
definite information on the shipping of po-
! tatoes at present writing, Prospects are
gloomy and the surplus is more apt to rot
than be sold at figures that would justify
loading.
Lucerne Seed-The demand for lucerne
oCSu III suIAtl qubU JlUISS COu blHueS SOOu ana
consignments will meet with ready sale in
local markets at cents. We think it
would be good business point for holders
to send their seed to US before seeding time
is over as with the market in it's present
condition it will mt pay to hold it ever for
another season. After seed time is past
prices will certainly decline Care should
be taken TO have the seed we'll cleaned and
in good marketable condition.-Price Cur

G. Eames, formerly of Aspen, Colorado,
arrived in the city on Sunday en- route to
Nevada, where he will assume immediate
control of the company's property. Mr.
lanes expects to leave for Phoebe some
time during the week.
10 HE HERALD representative he said
that there was a mistaken impression
abroad concerning the recent suspension of
work by the company. 1t had been said
that when the smelter closed down, the
greater part of the forces on the mines had
also been laid Off This was not true, as
the company is at present employing about
hundred and fifty men. The
closing down of the smelter, too,
he thought would only be temporary
1t was possible that it might be started up
again within the next month. There were
many reasons why smelter, as remote
from railroad and fuel as the one at
Phoebe, could not run continuously, but in
this case it was not because of lack of
ore, nor of variety of it.
Mr.. Eames said he had paid a visit to
Phoebe a month ago and had examined the
mines. That examination had convinced
him that there were few better mining
camps in the west. The mines, not only of
the Phoebe Consolidated company, but
others, disclose immense bodies of ore.
There is a variety of it sufficient for eco
nomical and profitable smelling even with
present disadvantages. With railroad
facilities, there was scarcely too high an
estimate to place on the camps production.
Those facilities may be obtained sooner
than many people suppose.

Business Briefs.

Thirty-six men are employed by the
Pacific Paving company on its State
street contract. These are engaged in lay
ing the curbing, guttering and boarding of
granite blocks. II is expected to finish
that part of the work on the west side of
the street, from South Temple to First
South, by tomorrow night. Some delay
in the work has been experienced by the
non-arrival of curling stone. The work
of laying the concrete and asphaltum will
not be undertaken until the weather is
fully settled.
j. M. Anderson, representing the Ander-
son Pressed Brick company, of Ogden,
was in the city yesterday trying 10 arrange
rates over the Union Pacific to enable his
company 20 get the products of his yards
into this market. He says the building
season has opened throughout the north
west, and his company is already shipping
to various points in that territory.
1t Is reported that the Salt Lake Pressed
Brick company is seriously considering
the removal of its plant from Murray to
the mouth OF South Cottonwood The
company is at present getting great deal
of the red shale at that point which is
used in giving the brick its color, and the
hauling of that is an expense which Gun be
done away with by moving the machinery
Then, too, as good quality or clay can 0e
obtained at South Cottonwood as that
which is found at Murray.
W. S. Simkins, the treasurer of the
company, says the experiments that had
been maze at Murray. had proven that as
good pressed brick could be made here as
IN any place in the east and the moderate
price at which the brick could be sold
would effectually prevent any eastern COM
petition.
The southeast corner of Second South
and West Temple streets Is to have
a business block erected on ii
this summer by the Auerbach Bros.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1892-03-22

What the character of the building is to DO
and what it will cost has not yet been de.
termined. Sam Aueroach said yesterday
that his brother and himself had been con-
sidering the Improvement of that property
for some time, but had delayed doing so
until they could make up their minds on
the sort of structure which would yield
the largest returns They had not vet
come to q conclusion on that point, but as
soon as his brother Fred, who is now in
New York, returned, some definite action
would be taken. The probabilities are
that it will be brick building two or three
stories high.
Sundays train brought in Mr.. G. H.
Jacobs and wife, of Aspen, Colo. Mr..
Jacobs has not been here in three years
He says he is astonished at the improve
ments that have been made 10 that time
and thinks they are not equalled in any city
of similar size anywhere. When here
three years ago, just before the boom, he
made some investments which have appre-
clated 800 per cent. His great regret now
is that he did not purchase other snaps
which were offered to him. Had he done
so he would have been a clear hundred
thousand ahead. He has now about con-
cluded to cast his anchor here.

Corbett and MitcheII have q Raw.

New York, March 21.-Charley Mitchell
ran across James Corbett in downtown
barroom this evening and made come
abusive remark that induced Corbett to in
innate that Mitchell was not behaving as a
gentleman should. This angered Charley.
who INDUCED in much foul language, and a
wordy war ensued. Mitchell wanted TO
fight right there, but Corbett said he was
not in the habit of fighting in barroono ;
he would sign articles and fight in ring.
After much wind, policemen cleared every
body out.
Before the Corbett row Mitchell and
Slavin had a scrap over game of pool in
the Hofmrn house Slav1n accused
Mitchell of cheating and a vast amount of
dirty language was exchanged. They were
on the point of coming to blows when
Billy Edwards separated them, and in ten
minutes they made up and started to find
Corbett
