DRIED FRUIT-Oferings of new crop are in
creasing but the demand is light and trading is
slow. It is little too soon for much business in
Raisins, though it is understood that sonnet trans
actions have been negotiated tor shipment next

BUTTER-Signs of weakness have prevailed
for two or three days and moderate concessions
were N cessary to keep down stocks. Fancy
grades shared in the depression, and lower
figures had to be accepted for such product. OF
what might be termed choice Butter the supply
is more than ample, caused by liberal receipts
from northern counties. Much custom is run
ming on picked Butter, while good article of
Eastern is pushed into prominence as q eompeti-
tor of domestic product. The market generally
shows lack of strength, and further decline in
quotations is anything but improbable

sell above quoted rates, though such trade is
limited. We quote as follows: Good to

,EGGS--Dealers look for lower prices. Trade
is fair but buyers content themselves with lust
enough to meet immediate needs. Eastern Eggs
are coming forward with freedom. Two carloads
arrived this morning and other shipments are

POULTRY-Dull trade and easy prices are the
features of the market. Constant accessiOns of
