SACRAMENTO MARKET.
Increased Demand for Poultry, With
Slight Receipts.


SACRAMENTO, March Esd.
Business was very quiet to-day, so far as
local trade was concerned, but was fairly
active in shipping lines. There is at present
no scarcity in Vegetables, and the quality is
improving as the season advances. Rhubarb
Is now plentiful.
At the present time Poultry is the one
article of produce which worries the minds OF
dealers. For some time past there has been
an active demand for Turkeys, Geese, Ducks
and Chickens, and as Easter approaches the
demand increases. Generally at this season
OF the year receipts are far in excess of de-
mands, but the continued cool weather seems
TO have caused much larger inquiry and a
falling of in receipts. Fancy prices do not
tempt growers to dispose OF their stocks and
the present outlook is that many will have

of meat. To-day there were not hall enough
fowls on hand to fill orders for Saturday, with
poorer prospects the coming week.

Drinking supply.

Up to date there is nothing whatever
the matter with Asheviile's renewed
water supply. The new steam pump
was stopped about + p. m, yes
terday but not because of any
break. The water in the rcSer-
voir had risen to such a height as to
strike the Icaky portion and this caused
the shut down, it not being necessary to
run the pump while SO much of the
water was going to waste. The pump
was started at midnight again, and
although Superintendent Murray has
had the sewers and hydrants flushed
today, thus requiring an extraordinary
quantity of water, the supply goes on
as if such thing scarcity of water
was never known.
The way in which the pump and pip<
line working pleases nobody more
than it does the Messrs. Pcnnirnan
Worthington's agents, Mr.. Short, the
Worthington expert, and Mr.. Kelly, the
contractor who laid the pipe line.

Improvement has extended from the

though still seriously depressed. More
important by far than any rise in stock
is the fact that many more WORKS have
resumed during the past week than
have stopped operation, SO that the
producing force OF the country, after
months of constant decline, has begun
to increase. Dispatches mention 20
textile and 30 metal works which have
resumed, some only with part force.
while 25 textile and nine iron works
have stopred. 1t is expected that most
of the Fail River mitfs will start soon.

WASHlNGroS. Sept. IL. - President
Cleveland absolutely refuses to consent
to grant any concessions in the silver
fight. says The Post. More than this,
he will not promise to agree to any
recognition of silver, even should the
repeal bill be passed. This is the sum
and substance of his position as re-
ported by senators who had conference
with him. 1t renewed the confidence
of the friends of unconditional repeal,
who asserted their unwavering faith in
the final passage of the measure.
Led Southerners TO Hope.
The publication of the report that a
feeling 0. compromise was in the air
led good many Southern senators to
hope and believe that perhaps the
crowns of thorns which, as one of
them said, they have been asked to
wear. might be lifted from their vexed
and anxious brows. Their position was
well known. With the interests Of
their party at heart they were fain to
present, If possible, some salve which
would take away the soreness OF uncon-
ditional repeal. The thorough debate
in the senate is arousing the people of
their section, and letters are beginning
TO pour in appealing to them to stand
ont against the proposed legislation.
Aware of this condition, they waited
with eager interest the report from the
president. When the latter's position
became known it caused temporary
cessation OF the compromise talk.
