Portland Wholesale Market.

UNI hANNb. -udy Az.
Changes in the wholesale market the past
week are few, with no dical variation in any
department. and the volume of trade fairly good.
Flour closed to-day more steady at unchanged
prices, sensational claims of damage from
Hessian flies caused an advance of ssc bushel
in Wheat, May closing at 705s land Corn closed
with gain of i4Gssc. Pork products continue
easy at previous figures. Sugar very strong and
tending upward, Teas quiet and steady. Mo.
lasses firm and higher. Dry fish unchanged.
Potatoes a trife easier Eggs steady. Camphor
lc up; now 51054c. Ipecac firm and fully 25c
higher. Lemons tending upward. Lumber is
steady at the advance. Hay nrmer. Fresh beef
dull, steady; we quote sides at 61adS12c
sacks 61aA7c; binds SOIL fores 5d6c rounds
and fanks Sa9c; rumps and lens 1od14c;
rattles 4d41ac lambs 1o912; mutton s9Slhc.
In freights, the demand for tonnage Is less ac-
tive in the coastwise trade, but rates are firmly
maintained upon the basis of last fixtures. There
is no Improvement TO report in coal freights to
the Fast; orders are scarce and with tonnage
quite freely offered rates seem TO favor shippers.
There has been no change to speak of in the
condition of the market for large tonnage in
long voyage trades. Barrel petroleum tonnage
continues in very limited demand though no
quotable change in rates has occurred. Lum-
ber to the River Plate continues in request, ana
several additional fixtures are reported; the
market appears firm in tone upon the basis of
Sl3 5OdSl4 so from Gulf ports to Buenos Ay-
res and Rosario and SO 50dl0 90 from Boston
and Portland. From the Provinces to Buenos
Ayres the range is 50 b0Glo so as to port and
size of vessel Brazil freights remain quiet.
Tnnnane for the West Indies continues i'm good
demand there being literal offerings of both
ont and home freight. Vessels. however, are
scarce, and full previous rates are sustained.

sale prices for this market;
