Country Produce Jobbing Trices.
In accordance with stubborn facts, wo have
reduced oar quotations on eggs to 15c per
dozen as the outside figure. There are rumors
of offers a shade below this figure. Creamery
butter has also experienced a slight decline,
but good grades are moving out freely. Cheese
is firm and the drift of markets is upward.
Higher prices already prevail in the East, and
it is only a question of a few days when there
will be an advance here. Potatoes are scarce
and firm. Onions and cabbage are quiet. There
is a fair demand for sweet potatoes at quota
tions. Fancy apples are in cood demand. The
same is true of choice tropical fruits. Poultry
supply is not up to demand and good stock is
very firm at outside quotations.

Minneapolis Wheat Receipts 160 cars
and shipments 38 cars The stocks here in
public elevators are expected to show about
100.000 bushels increase for the week. The
change from decrease In previous weeks to an
increase now. is due to the large arrivals from
interior elevators for several ilsys. The farm
movement was reported small, except a few
points in Minnesota. The local demand for
spot wheat was smaller, as the flour market
did not respond to wheat. In the last up move
ment holders of spot wheat asked higher
prices to correspond with the rise in futures,
bet millers hold back, and there was little out
side buying. Closing quotations: No. 1 hard.

A STK0ING CLOSE
Noted on the Homo Exchange Tbo Clenrlng
Hoove f till Gaining on Lmt Year
f enlnrci of Snturdny' frpec-
ulmlvo Ofarkcis, Etc.
Saturday ended one of the dullest weeks
ever known on the Stock Exchange. Sales for
the day were 65 shares, and for the week 960.
There were no material changes either way.bnt
nearly everything was firm.
The prevailing apathy should not be attrib
uted to a want of confidence in the securities
but to a radical and apparently irreconcilable
difference between buyers and sellers,and both
so settled in their convictions as to be unwilling
to make concessions That prices remain strong
with so little doing would convmco investors or
the futility of holding out lor more favorable
terms
There were no surprises dnring the week.
The aeclino in Allegheny Heating Company
was only a natural reaction from a too sudden
advance. The sharp rise in Westlnghouse Air
brako was the logical result of statements show
inc the company to be overrun with business.
Sales were 5 shares of Switch and Signal at
14X. and 50 Citizens" Insurance at 36.
Sproul & Lawrence sold 25 shares East End
Electric Light Companv at 601.
Robinson Bros, sold S3.CO0 Littls Rock, Ark.,
water bonds, 6s at par and interest. They are
guaranteed by the American Water Works and
Guarantee Comnanv of this rltv.
Rea Bros. & Co. bought 100 shares People's
Natural Gas and Pipeage Company at 15.
H. JL Long bought 150 shares Pleasant
Valley Railway at 25, and sold 50 shares West
inghouse Electric at 46.
C. L. McCutchcon sold 50 shares Philadel
phia Company at 33.
w
The local financial situation was comfortable
and encouraging Saturday. Checking showed
an improvement over the previous day, and
depositing was brisk. There was a fair busi
ness demand for discounts and plenty of cash
to supply it. Disagreeable weather was the
onlv thing complained of.
Bank clearings for the week were nearly S2,
500,000 greater than those for the same time
last year. If business was good then, as was
claimed at the time, and with no small degree
of pride, it must be better now. The gain can
be explained no other way. Signs of an active
spring trade are multiplying, and preparations
for it are w ell under way.

Rending li Strong Regnrdlcss of the State
of tbe Conl Trade.
New York, March 15. The general market
to-day has been steady and dull, with a notable
absence of outside inquiry for stocks. The
sentiment at large is bullish rather than bear
ish, but it does not manifest itself in any im
portant buying. While such shares as Atchi
son, the Grangers, Louisville and Nashville and
Missouri Pacific were practically unchanged,
a good rise took place in the Vanderbilts Lake
Shore, New York Central and Michigan Cen
tral aro closely held for investment, and a little
demand puts them up easily, as for example,
the same demand would adrance Delaware and
Hudson.
Manhattan Elevated was a fcaturo among
tno specialties, and it rose 1 per cent on lim
ited busiuess.
Reading was strong throughout and the pros
pect is that it will go still higher on Monday.
There is no use to argue about the state of the
coal trade. It has notning to do with the mar
ket price ol Reading. There is a bull clique
in absolute Control and a short interest that
must settle.
Warm weather and floods aro bear points, but
the impetus given to the market last week,
while not continuing to move up quotations
leaves a hopeful feeling among the general run
of traders The worst feature is the deadly
apathy of professionals and outsiders.

Choking Catarrh.
Have you awakened from a disturbed sleep
with all the horrible sensations of an assassin
clutching your throat and pressing the life
breath from your tightened chest? Have you
noticed the languor and debility that succeed
the effort to clear your throat and bead of this
catarrhal matter? What a depressing influ
ence it exerts upon the mind, clouding the
memory and filling the head with pains and
strange noises! How difficult it is to rid the
nasal passages throat and lungs of this poison
ous mucus all can testify who are afflicted with
catarrh. How difficult to protect the system
against its further progress toward the lungs,
liver and kidneys, all physicians will admit. It
Is a terrible disease, and cries out for relief and
cure.
The remarkable curative powers, when all
other remedies utterly fail, of Sanfobd'8
Radical Cure, are attested by thousands who
gratefully recommend itto fellow-sufferers No
statement is made regarding it that cannot be
substantiated by the most respectable and reli
able references.
