They were Tokays and Black Prince. The first was quoted at from 76 to $3 a lug and the latter, of which a small ex press shimment arrived last week, was quoted at $2.50 per Jug. A car of loose Bartlett pears, which arrived from Wenatchee, was selling at 3 cents a pound by the apple box, Some houses claim that peaches are dragging on the market because the prices are too high to permit can ning. Louisiana sweet potatoes are sell ing at $2 a 45-pound crate, Jobbers claim they are superior in quality to the ifornia stock, but sell more slowly because their appearance is not #0 attractive. It is believed that the hen market will drop within a couple of weeks due to the fact that hens not produc: ing will be sent to the market in ex- cess of the demand. There were no changes in butter, eggs or cheese, Monday. VEGETABLES Paid Whoetesate Dealers Prices Or, per Seattle Clearings .... . | Balances . Clearings « Balances ..
