demand for Sulphate of Copper for the home trade continues disappoint-i jag, but there is mere enquiry for shipment. Green Copperàs, remains stendy and, with the increased supply doing packages, more business for shipment. Acetates of Lime more slowly and little is being done in Acetate of Soda, buyers only' covering their immediate needs. The demand for Acetate of Lead is small and, with more offering, prices are easier. Carbonate of Potash is in better supply and value has receded Business in Montreal somewhat. Potashes is nominal. Arsenic has fallen considerably and there is more demand, with the removal of export restrictions as to Arsenical products. Prussiate of Potash is easier with the prospect of better supplies, but Prus alate of Soda remains steady. There is a slackening in the demand for Tartaric and Citric Acids and Cream of Tartar, and business passing is only for near delivery. Bichromates Soca are in LA Potash and plentiful supply and resale parcels. are offering at below makers' quotations. With most consumers
