On the wholesale streets, yesterday. there
was a GOO deal Of ac.ivIty. mostly in filling
mail orders and those brought in Saturday by
the travelling statesmen. Matters in trade cir
Giles are moving along with unusual smooth
ness. Bills were never better met, prices, as a
whole. rule steady. and while goods are sold
on close margins in the aggregate the wholesale
merchants, realize a very fair profit and leave
few bad debts to guard against. In prices, there
were no important charges. Eggs. although not
~quotably changed. rule easier. and lower prices
need not be a surprise in the next day CT
two. Poultry and butter are firm and In good
request at quotations. Saturday cleared the mar
ket CT tie surplus. which had accumulated
since Thanksgiving. The hide market is EASY az
the one-fourth cent reduction on Saturday.
Provisions are active with prices steady at the
revision Of Monday. The -four market is dun
and prices are easier. Leather is more active
and prices are firm. Dry goods houses are hav-
ing a fine trade. as are dealers in fancy notions.
On Commission row there were no new features.
Choice apples and Irish potatoes. If good stock,
are selling, well at fair prices
as receipts are not reaching the volume eS.
