DOMESTIC MARKETS.
g OFFICE OF PTrTsBURG DISPATCH. I
WEDNESDAY, April 29.


The quality of Southern vegetables coming
to our market of late is generally poor. Large
quantities of cabbage arriving for week or
two past are little good, and can hardly be
given away. Choice strawberries are scarce,
but of common stock there is more than
enough. Old potatoes of good quality are firm
at quotations, but anything in this line below
choice is dull and slow. Eggs are firm at quota
tions. While receipts are sufficient for de-
maId. so many are being gathered in by cold
storage companies that demand is good for all
offered. Supply of new cheese falls short of
demand, and old is a thing of the past. Coun-
try butter is coming in freely and markets are
weak. Choice grades of creamery are firm
and will be higher before the week is out
