WHOLESALE MARKET.
A steady market OH good beef has
prevailed this week. There is very
little common stock on the market,
and the demand for such meat Is SO
great that higher prices rule. The
market on lambs is weaker.
Very little change IN the pork
market has been noted this week.
Thfs morning the market on cured
meats. chiefly picked hams, was firm
er and trifle higher.
-. Stlll pretty frm," was reported OF
Ihe condition Of the egg market.
Frlces this morning were the same
rs Yesterday, and dealers said there
vas every indication OF high prices
ior some time.
