It opened hard and then improved. New York sold at first and then turned buyer, with the re- sult that prices closed at the top. The three features_were Atchison, Union Pacific and Ca- pper sold at £34 5s the ton | and Rio Tintos were steady. The fall in New York exchange suggests that gold may go over from this side.

Old Potatoes were unchanged and a weak feeling pervaded. New Onions are steadily declining and re- ceipts are increasing. Old were very dull. Asparagus had another decline under heavy ‘receipts, although buying was brisk at_the casier prices. The canners were buying No. 2 at fbe@$l. The usual quantiiy of Peas came | in and as the canners were not buying prices took a drop. Rhubarb was dull and stocks were steadily accumulating. String Beans were in demand for shipping and local trading and bet- ter prices would have been obtained for most offerings had the stock beer less hard. -Stocks of Tomatoes are diminishing and offerings are firmly held at the quotations.

Poultry and Game. The market was weak all around and most descriptions were quoted lower. Small Broil- ers and second-class stock were particularly slow. Receipts of Californian were 41 coops. Two cars of Eastern' were placed on the mar- ket, making 4 for the week, and sold slowly, as the stock was chiefly Hens, which were of- fering at $6@6 50 per dozen.

The buying of Butter and Cheese for Los Angeles account proved insignificant, and no sales for that place were reported yesterday. Both Butter and Cheese continued easy under liberal stocks. Free receipts of poor and common stock con- tinue the feature of the Egg market, which is reported rather weak than otherwise. At the same time choice ranch are in lighter supply than the lower grades, and firm at previous prices. The market is uninteresting at the moment, and lacks feature. Store eggs are be- ing offered at concessions. Receipts were 70,100 pounds, 6 kegs and 410 tubs of Butter, 1977 cases of Eggs, —— cases of Eastern Eggs, 8500 pounds of California Cheese and Dounds_of Oregon Chesse.

The wet weather had a depressing effect on the market for fresh fruits. Close on to 1000 boxes of Cherries were received and the fruit was in good shape, but there are a great many small Cherries on the market, which are hard to.sell, even at low figures. Strawberries were in heavy receipt and ar- but owing to the in- different trading dealers were forced to lower the price. The Berries in crates from Florin were mostly green, which accounts for the low prices. Gooseberries were offering freely at easier prices. Oranges were generally dall and other fruits sowed no change. Three cars of Oranges are announced for to-day's auction. STRAWBERRIES—$5@7 per chest for Long- worths and $3@4 50 for Malindas; crates, from Watsonville, with some large crates higher; from Florin, 65@85c. GOOSEBERRIES—40@75¢_per drawer.

Dried Fruits, Nuts and Raisins. The only feature of the local market at present is the condition of the crops. Pears | and Prunes are suffering from blight pretty much all over the State and crop estimates of a month ago are being cut in two. The small Prunes just out of the blossom are turning vellow and dropping off, while the Pear trees are threatened with disease in several San Joa- quin Valley counties by the strange blight al- ready mentioned. According to the Weather | Bureau report the whole fruit yleld of the State will not be as heavy as expected some weeks ago and in some sections will turn out short. Telegrams from Oregon to New York report serious loss in Prunes by the same blight that is reported in California.
