The eee market ia ruline firmer with the receipts snowing a, decrease and the demand better. The dealers sav that never in 'recent years have they found stocKs bo snort as during tbe present season. The cold storage men are very short and have exhausted every means to oDtain sumcient supplies. POULTRY IS SCARCER. The receipts in poultry Wednesday were very small but the demand is noth- lne extra. Prices con'inue a trifle too high for general uoneumetion. All sorts of poultry find a ready sale with the pos sible exception of geese. COUNTRY CREAMERY IS LOWER. The decline of 2 l-2c per ponnd o' 5c per roll made in the quotations by the city creameries has cansed a similar cut in tbe prices on the outside product. The country creamery but er, with but one or two exceptions, is quoted at all times & l-nc per pound lower tlian those of the city creameries. The market is in a very weak condition with stocks piling up very fast. Still another cut in the figures of both city and outside stocks is . looked for in the near future. POTATOES NOT COMING SO FAST. The receipts of potatoes are not larze today, but tbe demand continues at fe ver beat Very laucy quotations are being offered by the buyers but the farmers ar so backward with their spring work that they do not care to sell at any figure. ALL MEATS IN BETTER DEMAND. The cooler weather has left the meat markets in a better condition and Wed nesday theie was a good demand for both liogs and veal. The reoeipts of veal Wednesday were slightly larger, but all good stocks brought the quota tions. There arrived, however, several b td stocks which were not in a fit condi tion to sell. The market quotations re main unchanged. ASPARAGUS IS MORE PLENTIFUL. The arrivals of California, Oregon and Waila Walla asparagus are showing a large increase and during tbe coming week prices are expected to Bhow a de cline. Oregon grass ia now being quoted at about 7 1-2 and 8s per pound. SALMON SCARCER BVERY DAY. The receipts of salmon in this market are a disappointment to the fish men and most of the fish now being used in this market at the present time comes from the Sacramento river in California. On account of shortage in the Columbia nd Willameste river varieties the California product is quoted slightly higher. Other prices in the fish market show no change. GRAIN AND FLOUR.

Washington Letter. It still seems, as it seemed a week ago, that Congress may Bucceed in ad journing by tbe first a! May, for the postofhee appropriation bill, which haj been a thorn in the side of the adminis tratioo, passed the Senate yesteaay aud has gone to conference on the amend ments. These last did not include tbe proposition of Senator Gorman in behalf of the Democrats to have a Congression al investigation of the alleged corruption of membersf for tnat was defeated by a party vote after an acrimonious ex change. This bitterness culminated Tuesday in the venerable and dis tinguished Senator Teller, being insulted by Senator Hopkins of Illinois. The persistent and aggressive efforts made by Senator Gorman and others to amend the bill so as provide for a Con gressional investigation of the prevalent scandals, were quite unavailing, Sena. tors Lodge, Allison, Aldrich and Spooner Doiuiy avowing that they did not want any investigation of post-office manage ment except such as had been made by the Department itself. That, they de declared, was auite sufficient and cov ered the ground. it is now revealed that the funeral ot Senator Hanna ' cost the government more than SoU.UUU. although be was a millionaire. Last week more than forty speeches wete delivered in Senate and House in eulogy of Senator Hanna and Representatives Burk and Foerderer and members have leave to print for ten days. Xbese will be published In im mense volumes and the luneraia and and eulogies of the three men will cost the country not less than 100,000. Thir teen years ago I interviewed William SicKinley on this very question. "It is a dreadful abuse," he said, "and ought to be corrected and probably will be, These expensive funerals ought to be abolished., And I would not give a day to eulogies, either ; I would have an hour or two given to funeral speeches the moment a death is announced, end return to it no more. Then, whatever is said wouldbe corrupt and spontaneous ; it would come from the heait and go to the heart, and there would be very ht tie that would be merely formal and ar tiflcial. Our whole method of burying Congressmen should be . revolutionized, There should be no more 'junketing ex cursions' to bury our deal in some far on state.
