Final prices, however, showed insignificant net changes, as a rule, except in the group of coalers and some of the minor specialties. The an- thracite coal carriers had the natural advantage -of the news that a settle- ment of the labor dispute with the miners was in sight and that a strtke would be averted. Dealings in Read- ing were on an enormous scale and with considerable sympatthetic effect on the general market. This influence FOR PRODUCE Priees of Several Lines Show an Advance.

The Greenwich-street whart, where | the wholesale Fruit and Produce deal- | ers are located, presented an animated |appearance during the early morning ! hours yesterday. Retailers were fol- lowing the usual custom of stock- ing up for the Sunday trade and this extra demand imparted a firmer tone | to the market and prices for several lines were slightly higher than on the preceding day. Strawberries cleaned up quickly at improved prices and the | receipts of Cherries were insufficient lo satisfy the demand.
