DOMESTIC MARKETS.
OFFICE OF PITTSBURG DISPATCH, I
FRIDAY, November q. 1890.


The egg market shows an upward tendency,
and our prices are advanced IN accordance with
actual sales. Fresh nearby stock can hardly be
secured at any price. Eggs that are above
suspicion are in demand at more than outside
quotations. The approach of Thanksgiving
makes extra demands on hen fruit. Creamery
butter is in full supply, and present prospects
are for lower prices. Price of country butter
is only nominal. Nothing but fancy rolls can
ps sold. There is an improved demand for New
York cheese and prices are firmer. General
produce trade shows improvement in the past
few days. Potatoes are very firm and choice
stock readily sells at outside prices. Fancy
apples are also good stock. Cabbages turnips
and, in fact. all vegetables, excepting potatoes,
are dull at inside quotations.
