Firmness is the feature at the advances In
coffee and sugar reported in this column
last Saturday, and dealers report a fair
demand. The latest notes from New York
are as follows:
Refined sugars have found favor ar the
late advance, and a further addition to value
Is thought to be quite likely.
Purchases OF dried California lima beans
have been unimportant the past few days,
but former prices are firmly adhered to on
spot goods and stock in transit.
Late highest prices for spot parcels of
choice brands of New York State gallon
canned apples are adhered tc, and on con-
tracts for new pack anything under 81 40
seems to be the exception.
The slight reaction that has taken place
iatterly in prices for spot parcels of canned
tomatoes and corn fails to stimulate pur-
chases Evidently joDbers are inclined to
go slow until the market for 1892 pack goods
is more clearly defined.
Choice quality new crop evaporated april
cots, in sacks, were quoted at 12Tc f. O. b..
Pacific coast and choice evaporat ted pea aches
at l2c there. The Eastern trade are still in
different buyers.
