Prime mercantile paper, GW7 per cent. Sterling exchange was steady and unchanged. The total sales of stock to-day were 198,110 shares, Including the following: Delaware, Lackawanna & Western, 14,000; Erie, 3,100; Missouri, Kansas & Texas, i,17 5; Lake Shore, 3,010; Louisville & NashTille, 3,745; New Jersey Central, 20,600; Peoria.

Government bonds were dull but firm. State bonds were quiet aud steady. The stock market was unusually quiet, there being Tery little desire to .'rade, even among the professionals and room tradars. The movements in prices, except in three or four stocks, were sluggish and entirely lu significant. There was some covering of "Bborts" in the early morning, which imparted a tone of strength to the dealings for a short time, aided by the sudden strength displayed by Consolidated Gas. "When the demand of the "shorts" ceased a disposi tion wat. shown to await the bank statement, which, -proving unusually favorable stimulated buying to a small extent, but the movement soon ceased Kansas & Texas was a notably weak feature late in the dav. upon the decision of the Barry suit against the company. The coal stocks were the leaders of the ireneral market, but made no important changes The dav being Saturday, there was very little foreign trading, and dealings were almost entirely confined to the room. The opening was about steady, the ehanges from last evening's final quotations being for insignificant fractions only. The trading was very dull, except in the coal stocks and Richmond & West Point. Consolidated Gas was re markably strong, and the remainder followed slowly, The market became dull before the end of the first hour, and generally heavy, with the exception of Pe oria, Decatur & Evansville and Consolidated Gas There was some improvement in the general list after i moon, but the later advance was lost, Kansas & Texas becoming extremely weak. - Prices moved both ways in the last hour, and the market finally closed heavy to weak, do to the opening figures.

Most stoeks have advanced email facums, 'though Norfolk & Western preferred ia no 1 per cent. . There was a moderate business in railroad bonds. the features of which were the weakness in the Kansas end Texas sixes and fives, in consequence of the de cision against the company and the strength in the Lake Erie & Western, and Lafayette, Bloomington & Muncie incomes, upon the prospects of those securi ties under the reorganisation of the Lake Erie & Western company. Kansas & Texas sixes showed most activity, their sales being $175,000 out of a total day's business of $1,370,000.

All through the session there was very little news to affect the course of wneat. Priees remained closely around 8580 for May, but generally a shade under that figure. It was estimated that the visible supply would disclose an increase of fully half a million bushels. Towards the close there was moderate realizing, and the market closed at 8580. the lowest point of the day, Practically, nothing was done in corn to-day, trade not being suincient to bring about any appreciable fluctu ations. The great bulk of corn sold was around 424 42 33c, but fell off 40 near the close. Pork did much less than yesterday in the way of fluctuations, out tne situation was improved by not being quite so weak. After the opening at $12.35 for May, the decline was quite steady to $12.273, but no very large quantities sold at this figure. The recovery put the market back to $12.323.

An Active Trade for January, and Stronc Prices AU Along: the Line. Indianapolis, Jan. 8. Seldom is the volume of trade the first week in Jan nary as satisfactory as in the week closing to-day, and all along the line there is a strong tone to prices. In groceries, coffees are firm, with prospects of a further advance on the opening of next week. Sugars, as well. are in a stronger position than at any time for months past, although not quotably changed to-day. In the grocery line, only foreign fruits are weak. In the produce markets, a fair trade is in progress, with a firmer tone to poultry, butter and eggs the latter falling far short of the local de mand, consequently shippers are doing prac tically nothing. Apples are selling briskly at quotations and the demand for potatoes is good. Potatoes are shipped in here by the car-loads, using stoves in the cars to keep them from freezing. Ap pies are Deing snipped in nere, in tne same manner. in Urge quantities. The provision market is still on the boom, and holders of hog products are confident that the highest prices have not been reached. The leather market is active at unchanged prices. Hides are still dull of sale, and reports from ths East do not indicate an early improvement-. With the hardware men trade is a little slow, as usual in the winter months, but iron dealers are doing a good business. with priees stiff and tending higher. Business with the coal dealers is at nigh tide. Some of the leading

firms are doing a beaTy wholesale business, supplying towns and cities in this State which have never before drawn their their supplies from this market. GRAIN. Spot stuff or early deliveries are in good demand at firm prices, and dealers on light receipts bid with a good deal of confidence. The Board of Trade Price Current says: 'Wheat The week closes with prices in local circles ruling firm and higher, with no offerings and light receipts. Choice milling quality in good demand.

The Building Associations. All the associations are accumulating money at thi season of the year. It will, hower, all bo used when spring comes. The Ocoidontal, the new Blake-street association, is starting out in a very gratifying way. It has only been organized three months, and has had no money lying idle. The Plymouth Church Associations are having a season of remarkable prosperity, and are proving great benefit to the young men of the church, who ara working on small salaries. The stock of the new association being organized at the place of William Rosengarten, corner of East and Buchanan streets, is rapidly being taken. The association will take out articles of incorporation thia week. - - The indications are that more building will be done in Indianapolis next summer than for ten years. Of the seventy-eight associations in the city, there are but few that will not build at least a half dozen, houses, and some of them three tames that number. The Knights of Labor will complete its first year next month. The new plan on which it was organ, ised shares being $300, with weekly assessments of $1 per share has proven most satisfactory, and the association is one of the most prosperous in the city. ' The South Meridian-street Association will be fir years old next week. It has had a remarkably pros perous career. Only last week it made a loan of $3, 000 at a good rate of interest. It is one of the very, few associations that does not have money on hand at present.
