Some red were re- ceived and sold at 40c per ctl. Tomatoes continued firm under light receipts, During the early morning hours supplies wer limited and the top quotation was easfly ob- tained, but prices weakened upen the receipt of fresh ‘supplies. Changes in other vegetables were slight. POTATOES—Early Rose, “30@45c in sacks: Burbanks from the rivér, 40@60c in sacks and 50c@$1 in boxes; Sallnds Burbanks, 75@90c; Garnet Chiles, 50@60c. !

Poultry and Game. Recelpts “of Poultry were liberal and the market had a weakish tone, with the demand light. Prices of good large young stock were sustained, ‘but small stock was dull and lower. A car of “Western is due and will probably be placed on the market to-day. There were no changes in Game. POULTRY—Live Turkeys, 13@ldc for Gob- blers and -13@14c for Hens; Getse, per Goslings, Fryers, and $2@2 50 for dozen for old and $1 25@1 50 GA ME—DoVu T6¢ _pe: $1 for Brush. Butter, Cheese and Egés. The feeling in Butter is rather weaker, it anything. Some fine creameries are stilk bring- ing 26c, but a number of overstocked dealers are_offering the' pickof thelr floors at 25c. Cheese rules firm “with gradually decreasing |, stocks. Eggs are not as firm as they have been. Though receipts are comparatively moderate many dealers are withdrawing supplies from cold st and selling these goods at 21@22c, Which tends to weaken the market for fresh Eggs. Stocks continue unevenly distributed, some ‘dealers having plenty and others being lightly supplied. The Dairy Exchange has decided to keep up its organization, but hereafter will issue nefther statistics nor. quotations. A number ofwdeal- ers have notified: the cold storage companies not to give out any information as to the quan- tity of Eggs .and.Butter that’ they have in store, and this, of course, renders correct sta- tistics of supplies impossible, Receipts were 21,100 1bs, 1 keg and 8 cubes 24/060 1bs Eastern Butter, 967 cases Eggs, —— cases Fastern FEggs, 81,200 lbs Cheese and 22,060 lbs Eastern Cheese.

With the exception of Figs, all descriptions of Declduous Fruits were in fres supply and small packages continued dull. Peaches, Plums and Prunes in baskets sold fairly well, but aid Dot clean up. The canners were in the mar- ket and bought liberally of Peaches, Pears, Apricots and Green Plums In bulk. Offerings of Longworth Strawberries were of poor quality and sold at easier prices. Malin- das sold slowly, the high prices having checked | the demand. Blackberries were offering freely | and surplus stock went to the canners at the | bottom quotation. Grapes met with slow sale, as most of the offerings were green and sour. Cantaloupes and Watermelons sold well at sustained prices, but Nutmegs were easter under heavy receipts. Citrus and Tr?lcl.l Fruits were unchanged. RASPBERRIE 48@10 per chest. STRAWBE! S—40@45c per drawer for Longworths a.nd 4@6 per chest for Malindas.

Dried Fruits, Nuts and Raisins. The only change in the market is a slight advance in Prunes at New York, where the market is reported firm and tending upward. It is generally belleved that the packers have covered most of their recent heavy sales of Prunes for October delivery, but one or two | houses are said to be still short and skirmish- jng around to cover. They are meeting with some difficulty, as growers are much firmer in their views than they were a fortnight ago and are generally holding for higher prices than those now ruling. There is not much doing in Peaches and Apricots, and Apples are declining under Increasing arrivals of the new output, as already mentioned.
