Butter continues scarce and firm, most deal- ers being cleaned up. With settled weather | stocks will undoubtedly increase, hence deal- ers, a¥ already mentioned, are indisposed to advance quotations. There is nothing new in Cheese. Everybody is complaining about the sudden large increase in the supply of Eggs. which has demoralized the market. There are large piles in the commission houses, and they are steadily growing. juotations wired o the north are turned down, replies such as ““2c too hig “‘lc too high,” . etc., being returned. The local demand is utterly inadequate to ab- sorb the current.receipts, hence stocks are ac- cumulating and prices are declining. There are two conflicting forces in the Egg market at present. One consists of those deal- ers who are content to follow the market down, letting it fall of its own welght: the other con- £ists of a number of large houses who want to make a guick job of the decline, and by forcing the market down get it as soon as possible to | a point where they can put the goods into cold storage and thus clear the decks and improve the situation.
