MARKETS, LOCAL. AND GENERAL.
State Herald Office,
T1lesdav Night. MAN 10.

Tuesday Night, May 10.
"There is no comparison between our
Business now and at the same time last
year" remarked leading wholesale mer-
hhant this afternoon. This set the State
Herald man to making inquiries, and the
responses thereto almost invariably accord
ed with the foregoing. A representative of
a prominent house said that he had recently
gone over the books and found that BUSH
ness averaged, month by month, from 50 to
40 per cent more than last year. Another
was heard to say that it reminded him of
the good old days of five or six years ago.
Merchants, as a rule, are looking hopefully
to the summer. Local conditions, as well
as national, have an inspiriting tendency,
and collections are good for the season Of
the year.
There was no change today in the leading
groceries.
Tuesday is generally an off day in the
produce market, but dealers made no COM
plants as to the volume of business.
Lemons are firmer Indeed, local quota
tons are below the cost of Messina fruit de-
livered here. The California seedless lemon
mention of which was made yesterday
appears to sell well, although a stranger in
the market. 1t is a bright, healthy, thin
skinned fruit and is said to hold its own
with that from the Mediterranean.
Receipts of chickens were light today,
and the market was almost bare at the
close. Select fryers are in good demand.
Eggs continue firm, on comparatively
light receipts.
Strawberries ranged from $1.15 to $3.50.
There is no glut of green stuff and fruits;
supply and demand seem to keep even step.
Cattle are in good demand and market
bare; fat cattle, 212@3l4c; rough, 1h@1%c;
milch cows are slow sale at $15Q30 extra
good cows bring $35@50.
There is a fair demand for the best quail
ty of hogs at 3d3Ac, but poor stock is slow
sale at any price.
Lambs-Very best grades, $500; others,
$500.
Very few sheep are Offering; fat sheep

crop on record during the coming season.
At the same time the statistical position Is
well known to be strong. Liverpool today
was higher. Leading New York bulls We're
buying. New Orleans was conspicuously
strong. The receipts were small. The eX-
ports of late have been rather liberal and
print cloths have latterly been pretty
steady, and some descriptions of cotton
goods have sold a trife more freely. Good
commercial paper, it is stated, commands q
ready sale. The crop outlook in the Caro-
linas and parts of Georgia and Texas might
be better, Insects are complained of in

the opening was characterized by firmness,
the comparatively small exports of gold by
todays German steamer anu DeLeI ihat
abroad will furnish satisfactory legislation
TO keep shipments of the metal within mod
crate bounds having contributed to the
strength of the market at that time. The
improvement, however, was confined to mar
row limites save in the case of Rubber
stocks, which gained 11sQ21a per cent on the
statement submitted to the stockholders at
their annual meeting at New Brunswick,
N. j., today. Mr.. Banagal, who was said to
be opposed to the present management
stated at the meeting that he was not inter-
ested In a new company, as published some
time ago, and that he would support and
cooperate with the trust directory. This
also had a Strengthening influence. The re-
port submitted was considered favorable.
Soon after the opening Sugar and Manhat-
tan weakened. The former fell from 122ls
to 12O, and the latter from 10l% to 1ooA.
Sugars weakness was due to the reduction
in the price of refined which has led to real

MCNAMARA IN TROUBLE.
Arrested on a Charge of Perjury in
the Davis Case.

The charge of robbery against w. j.
Davis was tried in Judge Hinkson's
court yesterday
Davis and man named Donelly were
accused of garroting and robbing
Charles d. Brindupkey on Front street
some weeks ago. Donellys was ac-
Quilted a few days ago by a jury.
Ihree boys, named Finn, Glenn and
MCNAMARA, saw the robbery, and tes-
tlned regarding it in the Police Court,
lmpilcating Donelly, Davis and a man
known as Fatty" When the cases
were called in the Superior Court, how
ever, Finn had disappeared, and his
attldavit had to be used instead of di-
rect testimony before the jury Glenn
and Mcnamara fell down" and would
not corroborate their evidence at the
preliminary examination, the latter in
timating that he had been threatened
In case he did so.
After he left the stand Judge Hink-
son said that he believed he had lied,
ana directed him to sit down and wait
IN the courtroom. Shortly afterward,
when the Judges attention was at
tracted elsewhere, officer Hardy, who
had kept his eye on Mcnamara, noticed
that he had evidently become suspicious
or the courts intentions toward him
the District Attorney having asked the
1uuge quietly in regard to his inten-
tions, and having been answered that
ne would attend to the matter after
the jury had gone out-and was quietly
sneaking out of the room.
