FRUIT-There is a pretty good demand for
the several varieties. Receipts are liberal, and
ofsome kinds there is an excess at times, but
dealers promptly reduce asking figures to meet
the views of buyers and clean up stocks. Cher
ries have been in quick request all the season,
and custom is not likely to abate until consign-
ments cease to come forward. Peaches are ar
irving in better shape and receive better atten-
ton. ApricotS are a prominent feature of the
market, being liberal in quantity and choice in
quality. Some fine Raspberries and Blackber-
ries are found among the offerings. Strawber-
ries are not so general tavolite as q short time
