warmer temperature improved trade some
what, but it is so near the close of the
month that retail merchants buy only for
immediate requirements, as ii has become
a practice, now on the part of most of the
retail merchants to settle their bills on the
1st of every month. In prices yesterday
there were no important changes. Poultry,
on increasing receipts. is weaker at the re-
duction of Tuesday. Eggs ruled steady;
butter, If choice, brings best quotations.
The -four market is frmer in tone. but
prices are not advanced. Seed merchants
are fairly busy, with prices on all descrip-
tons of seeds steady. On Commission row
there is a fair volume of trade. Oranges.
lemons and pineapples are in good request
at firm prices. Few green apples are on
the market. Irish potatoes are firm at
quotations. Onions and cabbage are weaker.
In young green stuff prices are well held.
there being a good demand and receipts
light. Wholesale grocers are enjoying a
fair business at unchanged prices. The
dry goods houses report trade fairly salts
factory, and druggists, hardware and iron
merchants speak of trade as being good.
In other lines there rae no new features.
