TRADE FOR MONDAY
COOLER WEATHER HAD An APPRE-
GABLE EFFECT ON BUSINESS.
HOMEGROWN Irish Potatoes on the
Market-Considerable Arrivals OF
New Wheat Are Coming In.

Cooler weather gave more life TO trade
yesterday on the wholesale streets than
that which prevailed during the preced-
ing two weeks. The dry goods houses had
quite a squirt of trade. largely in the way
of replenishing broken stocks. COTTON
goods continue to strengthen in tone. prices
having a firmness which indicates even
higher prices than those now quoted. and
some of the leading dry goods merchants,
it is stated. are purchasing freely In an
ticipation of the advance. The wholesale
grocers had a big day. Travelling sales
men on Saturday brought in good orders
and the mail orders OF the morning were
large. Sugars and coffees rule much the
same in price. Although having been more
or less unsettled for thirty days past, no
material advance has been established
The provision market is healthy In volume
of business and prices are steady at the
revision Of Monday Flour is frmer in
tone, although prices are practically the
same. New wheat begins to come on the
market in considerable quantities, and be-
fore the week closes the flour market Is
liable 10 make new Developments on this
account. Local mills are running stead
lily On Commission row. as usual on Mon
day, dullness was the feature. Fruits and
vegetables of the season continue in ample
supply and a low range of prices exists
unless it be in some very choice fruit.
Homegrown Irish potatoes are now on
the market and prices have a downward
tendency. Lemons are in active request
at the high prices quoted. The produce
market is active. Eggs are in light sup
ply. as a large percentage is found on
Gambling to be bad. Butter, If choice. is In
good request. The hot weather of the
last two weeks was productive of a large
amount of inferior butter, much of which
is unsaleable except for grease. Poultry
is in good request. large and healthy young
hens and chickens being most in demand.
The local grain market shows more activ-
ity than last month. Receipts of corn are
active request. Wagon corn sold on the
local market yesterday as high as 46c. Re-
ceipts of wheat are on the increase but
cereals meet with ready sale at the fol-
lowing range Of prices. as furnished by the
