Fancy stock moved | oft well under a fair local demand and there | was some inquiry for medium grades for ship- ment to the Southwest, the low prices having stimulated the demard. Offerings of Eariy Rose and Garnet Chiles were limited and pricgs were largely nominal. Old Oregon Bur- banks were easy. Onions were dull and lower, with stocks steadily accumulating. Cholce Green Corn and Bell Peppers were the firmest articles in the vegetable line, supplies | of both being limited. Asparagus and Peas continucd to séil off well at steady prices. Other vegetables arrived freely and prices gen- | erally had a downward tendency. A large | portior of the receipts of Tomatoes were green | and the top quotation was obtained only for cholce rive offerings. Easler prices ruled for Cucumbers, Summer Squash and Green Okra, supplies being too heavy for the market to absorb. String Beans and Chile Peppers were easy.

Poultry and Game. The third car of Western Poultry for the current week was on sale and moved off slowly at fair prices. Receipts of domestic stock were liberal and the market generally had an easy tome. Large young fowls met with a fair de- | mand, but second-class stock was dull. Do- Mmestic Hens were very weak, as the three cars | of Western stock that were marketed since Monday were mcstly of that description. Re- | ceipts of Game were unusually heavy and con- | sisted chiefly of Doves. —which were quoted lower. Hare and Rabbits were in light re- ceipt and firmer.

Butter, Cheese and Eggs. 1 Butter is more or less unsettled, with wide | | atvergence tn the views of dealers. Some are | | disposed to advance, and others to lower, prices. Two houses yesterday sent out cards offering | their best ‘creameries at 25c. Stecks are not | the demand is poor. | The advance in Cheese is having the effect | of checking the demand. and some houses who quoted 13%.c for flats on Monday dropped back to 13c yesterday. The market is very unset- tied, and each dealer seems to have his own | price. Prices are likely to be uncertain until | conditions become settled again. are firm.at a further advance. lower grades. such as store and Eastern, are particularly firm, and the advance in them is | especially marked.

Deciduous and Citrus Fruits. Western, | r 15c: Eastern, Receipts of most descriptions of fruits were . but amplé, and choice stock moved off Fruit is maturing slowly, owing to the | cocl, cloudy weather, and the receipts of ripe stock are light-in consequence and such offer- ings sometimes command a premium over the { quotations.

No. 2 Bartlett Pears were dull, al-| though offered at easy prices, but good, sound | stock sold off well and occasional lots sold at a_smail premium. Apples were abundant and cholce offerings met with a steady demand. Of the Gravenstein riety, 4-tier boxes were | preferred, and readily commanded the maxi- | mum rate, while 5-tler boxes were in fair re- | quest at $1@1 25. Plums, Prunes and Apricots | in small packages stood about as previously | quoted. Peaches and Figs were firmer. Re- | ceipts of the latter were very light.
