Butter, Cheese and Eggs. Eggs made a_ sensational break of 7le per dobzen on the Exvchange yesterday, with deal- ers freely predicting still lower prices during the coming week. The cause of the break was the rain, light though it was, softer weather and increased receipts, with the general ex- Dpectation of steadily increasing supplies from now on. Nobody wants to hold ranch now at the current high prices, which must surely break in the near future. The deciine n the medium grades was comparatively slight, for they have mot been unreasonably high, 5 have fresh ranch. There was no change worthy of note in But- ter or Cheese. Poth continued in light supply and in fair demand. Traneactions on the Exchange were about the heaviest thus far since the Exchange was es- ltshed, as follows: D er.

Deciduous and Citrus Frults. There was very little doing in fresh fruith yesterday, but @ Arm feeling prevailed in Oranges and Apples, with all dealers expecting a firm and active market during the coming week. Stocks of fancy Apples were rather light, there being an actual scarcity of high- gnds offerings of the red variaties, such as & itzenbergs and Baldwins. Oranges were plentitul, fully b carloads belng received dur- ing the day. but the proportion of large frujt in the recelpts continued light. The other Citrus fruits were plentiful, but steady at the old guotations. Receipts of Strawberries were 15 chests, a large amount, considering the time of the year, but the Berries were Very poor, ard practically unsalable. Grapes, t00, were mostly poor and slow of sale.
