Orrick o THE OMAHA BrE, Wednesday Evening, December 28, This hasbeen a magnificent day —more tike sunimer than winter weather. The streets and wagon roads have become very much iniproved snd people and business begin to throng the streets with their ac. <customed activity. The local markets wore quite brisk to- day, especially in produce, erain, hoge, | 4 and the lighter articles in a retail way, Suvars and byrups have further declined. Some of the dried fraits have advanced @ shade, ‘Wheat in the turn dearer. Barl: y has dropped down a fraction. O.rn is lower, Rye has fallen off a little, Oats are firm with a slight advance. Dressed fowls sre on the decline, with alarge stock on hand, and weather %00|7 warm for them to keep. Other articles show no appreciable change. Tf this remarkable weatker con- tinues a few days longer, the roads and etreets will bein fino condition, and the winter will be womething to speculate abont. CREEETL Local Grain Dealings.
