Potatoes, Onions and Vegetables. The Potato market is weak except for strict- ly fancy Salinas Burbanks, which are in fair request for local consumption. The daily re- ceipts of river Burbanks continue too heavy for the market to absorb and stocks are steadily frecly and meet with a good demand at fair prices. A carload arrived from Merced yes- terday and cleaned up quickly at the top rate, while carried-over stock was rather dull at the Inside quotation. Fancy Onions are a little firmer under continued light receipts, but low grade offerings are plentiful and duli. There were heavy receipts of Tomatoes, a large portion of which had been two days In transit, and the market was weak at lower prices.” The canners were not in the market and there was quite a large quantity unsold at the close. String Beans were plentiful and easy, while Wax and Lima were in small sup- The other vegetables were in free supply and prices were without quotable change.

Poultry and Game. Another car of Western Poultry was on sale, making the fourth for the current week. Thers were liberal receipts of local stock and the market had an easy tone. Young stock, par- | ticularly young Roosters, was dull, while large old stock was in brisk demand and steady, with some fine large old Hens selling ab the quotations. Squabs and Spring Turkeys were In good request and there was a steady Inquiry for young Ducks. There were liberal receipts of Game and the market ruled steady.

Butter, Cheese and Eggs. Butter continues very weak, and anything over 28c must be especlally cholce and then old In small lots. No round lots will bring over this figure. Most houses are overstocked and offering their goods everywhere at conces- sions to sell them. Fine mild Cheese is doing better, but the medium and lower grades do not budge from previous quotgtions. There is plenty of low- grade Cheese still on the market readily pur- chasable at 1lc. This includes large lines from t supply and firm, apA sales at the top quotation are reported by a number of houses. They are in light stock, With cmall receipts.

Local trade in fresh frults was quiet and prices of most descriptions stood as previ- ously quoted. There was no shipping to near- by poirts, but there was a steady demand for faficy Apples and Pears for snipment to Hono- lulu on the stemer Ventura, out to-morrow. Three cars of !lncy Apples were shipped from Watsonville fof that purpose. The market was overloaded with cheap Apples, which moved slowly at unsteady prices. Supplies of table Grapes continued excessive and prices were unsteady, except for choice Muscat in large boxes, which were in small supply and cleaned up well at the maximum quotations. Wine Grapes, too, were easy, recelpts being heavy and the carry-over from the preceding day large. Stocks of Peaches were light and prices were a little firmer, but the demand was slack. The other tree fruits stood about llrv(ou ly quoted. Cantaloupes and Nutmeg Melons a rived freely and m slowly, no reasonable offer being refused the general run of sup- plies.
