LOCAL GRAIN AND PRODUCE.
Trade Was More Active and Prices
Were steady and Firm.

The bright weather. after two days Of heavy
rain. gave more life to trade yesterday, and at
the dry goods houses, druggists, grocers, and. in
fact. in all lines of trade. there was a percepti-
bic improvement. On Commission row more
business was transacted than on any day OF the
last week or more. In prices there is little new
to note. fluctuations in values being few and
unimportant. The seed market Is a little frmer
In tone. as is the -four market. The leather
and hide markets are more active at unchanged
prices. Poultry. eggs and butter are steady at
quotations. Receipts are light for March. Pro-
visions are in good request and prices are firm.
The easier tone to the sugar market was re-
Elected somewhat in the coffee market yester-
demand.
