sonaole fruits, vegetables and berries, and
prices are steadily declining. Our list CT quo
taiions VIII be found full and accurate
The butter, egg and poultry market has ruled
steady during the week. Prime fresh butter
is in good local demand, but shipments are of
little consequence. Eggs and poultry are in
fair shipping demand, and prices are firm
We give a report of the New York market OF
Saturday last from the Commercial Bulletin:
Eggs-Reeeipts to-day, I,C24 barrels. The
fresh arrivals for the week have been remark
ably free or large, but the demand extremely
cautious and Indifferent, with buyers
handling the smallest possible quantities
have occasionally obtained fair rate on a
matter OF brand and condition, but as a rule
values were on the downward turn. To-day
about l6c was the best rate for Western,
though some sales were made as low as
l51zc, and holders seemed rather inclined to
realize.

Receipts at this point are fully up to the ex-
pectation OF dealers, but prices are weak, ow-
ing to the depressed condition OF the trade In
Eastern markets, and there is nothing likely
TO e. anspire for some time to come to vitalize
the wool business. The New York CONNER
cial Bull etin of Saturday refers to the market
as follows:
There has naturally been only a moderate
degree OF animation during the broken week
cal change in any department. There is some
demand from the manufacturing interest
VINO must continue TO handle a little stock If
only 10 complete contract. In hand, out buy
ers are not in large enough attendance to in
fuse any great amount or life into the busi-
show an regularity on about all 2, AIDES, and
close quotations are difficult to de ide upon,
though 1t is evident that pretty easy range
must be taken for base of operations this

bulk of the clip. Our dealers and com mission
men want very little stock, and are
while the few offerings making from
time to time meet with no great favor even
when there seems TO be a disposition to name
easy terms. California and Texas descrip-
tions continue at about former values, and at
tract fair attention, all things considered.

of the market, as importers could only sell at
heavy I0ss,b for carpet stock there is about
steady feeling on much the former basis of
quotations.
