GROCERIES, PROVISIONS AND IL
QUORs.

Trade in the wholesale grocery line
shows a large increase over the preceding
year, and the volume of business was
greater. Prices in all lines were fully up
to or perhaps slightly in advance of those
of last year at the corresponding season.
Coffee still rules low. but being more gen.
orally in demand, jobbers do a satisfactory
business. Canned goods range higher. but
this fact may, in the main, be attribut-
able to the advance of tin plate, as well as
nails and wood all Of which serve as ma
terial for preparing the goods for ship
ment. Canned peaches, however, have I'M
dergone marked change for the
better, prices, being quoted high
er now than has been known
for years Canned fruits also rule
a little higher owing to the shortage in
this years crop-especially in peaches
These goods were in strong demand dur
ing the war with Spain during which the
OVerplus in canned goods was wellnigh
exhausted, and to this also is due in a
measure the advance in prices.
Fancy groceries are much more in de
mand, with prices ranging slightly higher
Owing to the gratifying business outlook
consumers are purchasing better quality
of goods While the prices on some OF
these articles have undergone a slight de-
probation, merchants find their receipts
greater, indicating an oVerbalancing de-
mand for the goods
Trade in the interior was very satisfac-
tory, being unusually strong and of a
better and more desirable nature. Mer-
chants in adjoining states are giving sa-
vannah the preference over cities even of
their own states, and wholesale merchants
find no difficulty in extending their trade
Jobbers are receiving daily new and in
creased orders from retailers In
Florida, South Carolina and Alabama.
Business in Florida has been more favora-
BILE for the year than usual, and Savan-
nah's wholesale houses boast of a better
class of trade from that territory, as well
as a greater volume The outlook for
fruit in that section being fairly good, in
connection with the enormous output Of
turpentine and phosphate, people are en-
abled TO purchase a better class of goods
and more of them
Turpentine interests, together with the
favorable outlook for the disposition of
their agricultural products, have a tenden-
cy to admit Of more liberal expenditures
than has heretofore characterized the bulk
of the country trade.
Collections have been good from every
source and merchants are not hesitating In
the extension of their business.
Prices on liquors rule higher while CT
gars and tobacco remain comparatively
neutral. barring the internal revenue.
Tobacco ranges a little strong, but not
materially higher than last years quota
TONS and, Notwithstanding the revenue,
the demand indicates more extensive con
sumption, and an increased demand.
Some of the wholesale merchants In the
foregoing lines have recently made extern
sive shipments to Nassau, and intend a
continuation Of the business rs soon as sur
roundings will admit Early I'm the
season they placed their goods on Cuban

DRY GOODS, NOTIONS, BOOTS AND
SHOES.

Conditions were gratifying in these lines,
with even higher indications for the flu
ture, based on facts. With the formation
of trusts and the marked increase in de-
mand both at home and abroad trade
opened up a S early as January with ten
dency toward appreciation in values Col
lections were better than for years. The
present wave in prosperity, enables the
consumer TO obtain employment or dispose
of the products on hand, in turn enables
wholesalers to extend their business TO
broader and more desirable markets.
Prices in boots and shoes have advanced
Is per cent since Jan. !, and the increase
is assumed also in every class of leather
goods Cotton goods developed tendency
early in the season toward better prices,
showing gradual incline up to the present
moment with a better outlook for the fu-
ture. Wooden goods, ranging fair in
prices at the c.ose of last season, mani
tested a steady appreciation this year and
register now an advance of % per cent
over Jan. l. These latter commodities IN
derwent an unexpected change for the
better this year. created by demands bas-
ed on heavy home consumption and an In
creased demand upon American manufac-
turers by China and other Eastern coun-
tries.
The mastering out of the American SOL
diery resulted in large expenditures for
this class of goods. The looking up IN
markets for agricultural products, as well
as the favorable outlook in numbering in
terests and naval stores supplies rules to-
ward Increased consumption.
Cuba bids fair to open up broad and
desirable field of trade In these dimes, bu,
in her present condition and while an IN
settled state exists in governmental ar
fairs, home jobbers are avoiding rather
than seeking what they term. as yet, an
uncertain trade. Favorable anticipations
are being entertained, however. for the
coming season, and jobbers are making
preparations for an attempt at establish
ing an extensive trade IN Havana.
Trade with South Carolina and Florida
and even with Alabama have exceeded IN
extent the most sanguine expectations or
the wholesaler. With an increase in busi-
ness in general, in view Of the tremendous
excess over the preceding years in expor-

shores for the purpose of supplying the

chants were among the first to
land supplies in Havana their yes
sci being second among the American
ships to assume the risk of landing sup
plies successfully.
With view to establishing trade, how
ever, either in Cuba or Porto Rico, such
intentions upon the part of the merchants
in this line will not be put into execution
until late in the fall. That Havana viii
eventually afford profitable market there
Is no room for question, nor could there
be expressions of doubt relative to Porto
Rico as a field for extending American
commercial interests. That Savannah Is
in position to successfully compete with
any other point there could be no note
worthy argument to the contrary, but un-
der the present governmental conditions
merchants do not feel justfable in open
ing up negotiations on that score at the
present moment

Total
RICE.

Owing to the almost total destruction Of
the rice crop by storms the previous year,
the crop for this season will hardly be an
average with that of preceding years, as
storms not only leave the ground in bad
condition, but In many instances leave the
planter in a similar plight Anywhere
from 5000 to 1900 acres were planted this
year in the territory tributary to Savan-
nah, and barring storms the outlook Is
gratifying. Planters were late in
planting and it will be October be
fore the harvest is completed. The dry
weather has materially affected the
growth. and planters are complaining
about the ravages of the caterpillar, but
both the drought and the pest have affect
ed the inland crops most seriously, and
the crops along the rivers give promise Of
better yields Barring accidents in the
way Of storms or tidal waves before the
entire crop is harvested the yield should
reach 100000 to $50 600 bushels. Owing 10
the enormous acreage in Louisiana and
Texas, it Is feared that prices will not rule
as high for the season as was the case
the year previous, though there should be
no grounds for predicting a decline, as the
total output in this country is never suf-
fcient TO supply more than half the de-
mand from consumers IN the Unlted
gtafes 1t Is for this reason that rice is
imported annually from Java, Japan and
India The quality of the imported rice
is inferior to the home product and aside
from the heavy crops in the contiguous
states, there should be no reason for
Southern planters accepting a reduction in
| prices.

Ii is not many months since the publishers Of

for the special holiday edition Of 'Montcalm and

that regards presswork and the illustrations

Views and portraits all being taken. so far as

Parkman is, we hope. too widely read at this
time for any discussion of his work to be re-
quired. Yet we cannot refrain from abiding
upon this occasion TO the pleasure pure and
simple, which is derived from his works point
which the publishers have doubtless had in
mind In bringing out this holiday edition. After
all the historians are few whose books arc
adapted to such purposes. The gravity Of their
purpose is scarcely calculated to appeal TO
readers full of the spirit Of the holidays. Glib
bon. for example. or even Macaulay, would
hardly provide the best material for an edition
like the present one. Parkman, on the other
hand. who does not yield to either Of them in
the weightiness or usefulness of his writings. is
distinguished among modern historians for
charm and human interest. Like Froude he is
as readable any novelist. "Montcalm and
Wolfe" for example, is solid literature II any
book Of the nineteenth century is, but II is lit
by the brave lights Of romance, 1t abounds in
