HINDSIGHT. 
REVIEW OF THE WEEK’S MARKETS. 
The grain market early in the week opened 
strong and somewhat higher, and while there 
have been some fluctuations during the week, 
prices have been fully sustained, and the market 
is strong at the close. It has been reported in 
the markets here that there had been a reduction 
in the Spanish duty on wheat, and it is also ex¬ 
pected that there will be a similar reduction by 
France. Whether there is anything in this or 
not, is yet to be learned. Italy has been buying 
our wheat in addition to other countries, so that 
it seems to be wanted by various customers, and 
this would indicate a good outlook for the fu¬ 
ture. Corn prices are well sustained, although 
sales have not been heavy. There have been 
some export shipments of oats, and the market 
has been well sustained at slightly advanced 
prices. The barley market is dull. There is an 
increase in home demand for clover seed, and 
the market is well sustained. 
Receipts of apples have been ample, and prices 
are materially lower than one week ago. Fancy 
cranberries are very scarce, and the price is 
high. Florida oranges are scarce. Californian 
are plentiful at slightly lower prices. Strawber¬ 
ries from Florida are not in large supply, and 
are bringing good prices. 
The butter market is in good shape, receipts 
being light, and prices a little higher. There is 
more of a demand for some of the under grades 
of butter, and this has strengthened prices on 
these. There has been a little inquiry for the 
best grades for export, but not to any great ex¬ 
tent. Receipts of cheese are light, but the de¬ 
mand is small, so that it is practically un¬ 
changed. Receipts of eggs are heavier, and the 
market price has declined. The same is true of 
nearly all the other markets from which we get 
reports. ^__
