Potatoes, Onigns and Vegetables Prices for Eastern and Oregon Potatoes were weak and unsettled, as nearly all recelvers were overstocked and anxious to keep the goods mov- ing, which could be done only by offering in- ducements to buyers. The aiready heavy ac- cumulation of supplies is being added to daily | and the outlook is for a weak and declining mar- ket for some time to come. Onlons, too, are weakening under heavy arrivals, most of which are coming \to hand in poor shape, which neces Sitates quick sales and Constant epacking. Asparagus, Rhubarb and Peas are the leading features of the vegetable maxket, and prices for all three are gradually weakening as the receipts increase. Rhubarb was in excessive supply yes- terday. Two straight carloads from San Lean- dro, ‘which were intended for shipment to the north, arrived too late to be transferred to the Puget Sound steamer and were turned into the local market, csusing a sharp break in prices.
