PORTLAND. Dec. II. 1895. q,
The business situation shows no new develop
ments. although va ues continue on fairy steady
basis there is considerable disappointment in
the volume of trade. in most cases it beng
much smaller than for the same period year
ago. with collections decidedly slow. Flour is
selling fairly well, particularly for all winter
wheat brands. which are very firmly held
at full prices, and while spring wheats are prac-
tcally unchanged here, some slight concessions
have been made recently by millers. Wheat,
Corn, and Oats are rather easy i'll tone, and low
er than last week. Groceries have been steady
and quiet, but firm feeling prevails on most
everything in this line; Molasses exhibits more
strength in sympathy with advancing prices at
the South; Sugar are also steadily held at old
figures. Provisions quiet and unchanged. The
market for choice Baldwin Apples is firm and
higher, fancy bringing SO in a j0bbing way.
Eggs are still tending upward; nearby scarce
at sec. Hay shows no change whatever, with
but little choice coming in; the outlook for bet
ter prices is rather poor on account of the con-
tlnual decline on grain, and millfeed is about as
low as Hay Coal is in active demand;e 1.-the sup
ply on hand is fair, and no further rise is antici-
pated; we learn that circlar rates at the mines
are not generally maintained Butter commands
better prices on all grades. Dry fish and Mack
erel are featureless. Fresh fish dull: receipts
light and prices higher, jobbing at 31ac y tb
for Cod and 31ac for Haddock, &c for Hake.
