The following are the only changes
ported la the market to-day :
Wheat , cash No. 2 advanced Jc ; c
No 3 declined Jc.
Green apples declined 50o to 75c

Fiour declined 5o to IGo'per hundred ,

Changes In the market during the p
we.k , as noted from day to day , have I
a gradual falling nff from the prices ol
week previous. This is applicable ,
pecially to the grain and -ono or two li
of dry goods ; while various products
the farmr , cmch us potatoes , eggs , e
fame -advanced and are in good dema
Tfle priM , however , of thoao cominodtt
will probably decline acaln within
next ten dayv , although it is imposslbli
speak with any certainty .of potatoes ,
planting time is at hand tnd prices
very unsettled , partly on account of
poor quality ot stock on hand and pai
on account of the uncertainty of the s
ply and denttn 1 from now until seed t !
la past. Farmers througbouUbe coun
are suppoted to have stored more tl
they will need far seed , and it is repor
that , on examination , many of be pc
toes have been more or less decayed , i
large quantities are In an unenrkeU
condition. Kngc are tcarcn anl In c ; <
deiatnd. Butter Is plenty and lowe :
and the market dull , but prices will i
doubtedly go no lower until gnxss 1
grown large encugb for cattle to Hve
Theto la almost an over abucdtoee
orangfb and lemons , and the pilco r tna
about the ssms with only a fair demai
Freih oyttera are dull and will probably
taken oat cf the market w'tblo n week
two. Green house vegetables are j
coming into market , and ridlihes , onlo
lettuce , etc. , are on sale at Ihe'varii
commission houses and are telling at gc
prices , although the demand la not v <
great. Wood and coal is dull owing to 1
warm weather. Dry goods are compa
Urely unchanged , and Urge orders i
coming In from U orer tbe eottnti
Groe tlM averf tcnt th

ness.

ment. It Is partly furnished. It Is
