er hand, the tendency of prices bIiicc
tho llrat of tho year hits been down

decline of !I0 cents it hundred on all
grades of tho sweet stuff, and they
say that In all probability tho sugar
ninrket will contlniio Kb downward
course.
".Meals of nil kinds hold up firmly,
nud tho prospect Is for higher rather
than lowor quotations as the setiHon
advances. Hoof now Is selling nt tho
highest prices known in a long time,
and the cost of mutton Is steadily ad
vancing. I'ork prices remain about
the same us those of a week ago.

"Dealers say they have orange
enough to take care of tho trade for
