Receipts from all sources wer. unusually heavy during the week and the | closing of a large mumber of restaurants ow- |ing to lubor troubles resulted in a heavy sc- | evEulation of stock, hence the lower prices. ‘ihe market is slenderly supplied with Vege- | tables, s usual at this time of the year, and getieral advance in prices will be noted. | Fruits have ehanged but little since last week.
