Cincinnati, Ohio, Oct. 21. 



Cincinnati. — There is considerable honey com- 

 ing in. Strictly fancy comb honey is selling from 

 WA to 18; amber comb honey is a detriment to the 

 honey business, and we discourage its sale for the 

 reason that buyers buy it just because of price, and 

 are unconscious of the great harm they are doing 

 to the trade in general. Extracted honey is plenti- 

 ful. While tlie price holds up pretty well, there is 

 a world of it to be bought. We are selling amber 

 extracted honey from 6 to 7^2, according to the 

 quality and quantity purchased; and for strictly 

 fancy water-white table honey. 10 to 11. We are 

 paying 28 to 30 cts. for choice bright yellow bees- 

 wax delivered here. 



Cincinnati, Oct. 21. THE Fred W. Muth Co. 



Schenectady. — Since our last report, receipts of 

 comb honey have been more liberal, most of it 

 inferior clover and buckwheat. No. 1 white is very 

 scarce; white extracted is also scarce. Buckwheat 

 appears to have been a good yield, but as yet there 

 is not much demand — no change of note in price 

 of either comb or extracted. We much prefer con- 

 signments of honey packed in suitable shipping- 

 cases. We have had two shipments badly broken 

 recently, causing us much trouljle. and depreciat- 

 ing the value of the honey much more than the 

 cost of carriers would have been. One railroad 

 refused to receive a consignment for us, which 

 necessitated transferring to another line, because 

 it was not crated.

Liverpool. — Stocks are getting very low, and 

 there were about 63 barrels of Chilian sold last 

 week from §6.24 to §7.92 per cwt. from store. There 

 is a quantlt.v of Haitien on hand, but buyers do not 

 fancy tlie quality, which is of the low type. Other 

 kinds are nominally worth as follows: Californian, 

 §8.40 to §10.08; .lamaican, §6.00 to §6.72. Peruvian, 

 §3.84 to §4.80; Haitien, §6.00 to §7.56. Now that the 

 winter is coming on, we anticipate a better de- 

 mand all round. The beeswax market is steady, 

 with a fair demand. Sales of Chilian have been 

 made at §34.48 to §38.72 per cwt. from store. Other 

 kinds are quoted. African, §32.64 to §34.48; Ameri- 

 can, §37.48; West Indian, §27.80 to §36.28.
