Country Produce-Jobbing Prices.
The Chicago market for eggs is 1211c and
Pittsburg and New York outside quotations
! are l4c Markets here are relatively higher
than they are both East and West. Large
quantities going into storage of late, as the
| feeling of dealers is that bottom has been
| reached. Some dealers. however. are strong in
the ia tn of still lower prices. Receipts at New
York yesterday were more than double the late
daily average, the total being 1900 packages
Choice creamery butter is steady at quotations
and country rolls are weak. There is little new
cheese coming to market of any ACCOUNT, and
the old is practically cleaned for tins season.
The first new Ohio cheese will not be due until
next week. Alleged new cheese from Wiscon-
sin is offered, but buyers are naturally chary OF
the product. In tropical fruit lines. lemons are
the firm factor. The advance in lemons lately
announced is fully sustained. and prospects are
good for still further advances st an early day.
