WHOLESALE MARKETS.
INDIANAPOLIS. IND.

MONDAY EVENING, March 26.
But few changes occurred in the local
provision market today. Prices are firm
and a steady market is reported. Coffees
and sugars are unchanged. The market is
reported firm. There is a better feeling in
dried fruits. The cold eather has a ten
dency to check business on commission
row. The receipts of fruits and vegetables
are light and but little is doing. The cold
weather is likely to decrease the produc-
ton and receipts of eggs. The market to-
day is quoted firm with no change in
prices. Advances are looked for however.
Dry goods merchants say their sales today
were not equal to those of last Monday.
