There was practically nothing doing in the shipping line and local dealcrs seemed to be holding off, awaiting deveiopments, and were purchasing | no more than necessary for immediate re- | Quirements. - Onions were firmer under scant | supplics and a good demand, both for local use | and shipping. | Miscellanecus vegetables were in free supply and prices had but slight variance. Tomatoes arrived freely from several districts, but prices were well maintained and Bell Peppers did better under a good call for shipment. Sup- plies of Cucumbers and Summer Squash, while less liberal, were still far in excess of the de- mand and carried-over lots of both descriptions were suill offering below the quotations. Poor quality offcrings of String Beans were plen- | tiful and Qull ande the canners picked up sev eral lots at Ic per pound. Asparagus and Rhubarb are no longer worth quoting, as there are only a few scattering being received from day to day.

Offerings of domestic stock con- sisted chiefly of small young chickens, which were vory weak, and young Roosters and Fry- ers were quoted lower. Full grown young Roosters would have found ready sale at a substantial premium had there been any avall- able. Game was in light receipt and Wild Doves brought firmer prices, while Hare and Rabbits were steady at unchanged rates.

Butter continues weak, with stocks large and the de- mand very slow. Some dealers find themselves obliged to place a good portion of thefr sur- plus In the icehouse. Cheese is weak and plen- tiful, as tar as flats are concerned, while Young Americas are in moderate supply and firm at the recent advance. Eggs are decidedly easy, with & general desire to sell. The supply Is about all that the market can take care of at present : Receipts were 148100 lbs Butter, 1404 cases Eggs and 7100 Ibs Cheese.

Good, hard offerings of Plums and Prunes were wanted for shipment north and readily commanded full figures, and wi yellow Peaches, suitable for shipment, up | o €3¢ a box, an advance. Shipments of early Peaches from the river districts have about ceased and the market is gradually working around into good shape. Bartlett Pears were still plentiful and ruled weak at lower prices, although trade was moderately active. The anners were buying No. 2 stock at the quo- tations and offering $30 per ton for the best stock. Occasional sales of Plums in bulk were | reported for canning account at prices ranging from $20 to $25 per ton. Apricots in bulk con- tinued firm and active, with the canners pay-- Ing as high as $35 per ton for the best Strictly fancy offerings from Martines small parcels to the regular trade at 2%c per | pound, but 2c was the ruling price for offerings | from other ‘sections. Grapes were In free sup- ply, but offerings were nostly small and sour and found few buyers. Cantaloupes and Nut- ' meg Melons from ano were green | and sold slowly at easier rates, while offer- | ings from other sections moved freely at good prices. Stocks of Watermelons were light and Pprices were well maintained. Red Nectarines were lower at $1 per crate, while the white | yariety were awaiting a buyer at any price. | | Recelpts of Blackberries were suddenly heavy | nd inclyded a great many chests of poor quality the Sebastopol region. which - | dragged at the minimum quotation. The othep Berries were In good request and unchanged. | Supplies of Citrus fruits were light, but ample, and all prices stood as before. STRAWBERRI] £ 7 i ! per chest. HUCKLEBERRIES—10@12%¢ per Ib.

There s nothing new in Wool. The market is closely cleaned up and the outlook is very good for the forthcoming Fall clip, which wiil appear in the course of two or three weeks. ‘The situation is very strong. Hides are as previously quoted and conditions show no change. Hops are more or less nominal. and the con- diticn of the crop is about the only featurs of interest at the moment. Late mall advices from New York say: “Cable advices from London reduced estimates of the yield of the English crop from 500,000 cwt. to 450000 ewt. and cabie advices also were received saying that the crop outlook on the continent was less brilliant than recently. Adviees from the coast com- tinued to report dry weather in Oregon and ‘Washington, but claimed that the crop was with- standing the effects of the drouth well. The local market was about steady; sales were re- ported of two small lots of prime Stats hops at 29¢. HIDES AND SKINS—Culls and brands sell about %4@le under quotations.
