OFFICE OF PITTsBURG DISPATCH,

TUESDAY, July Z.
COUNTRY PRODUCE (Jobbing Prices)-The
supply of raspberries to-day was the largest
of the season. and proved beyond the power
of our markets to absorb. There were not
less than ], 500 crates in the hands of commls-
sion men this morning, and markets weak
ened ON the too heavy receipts. Shippers of
fruits will find little encouragement from
results of this week The expected advance
in Elgin creamery butter failed to material
ize. At EIgin last weeks prices were reaf-
firmed at the Monday meeting. New Swiss
cheese is now coming in freely, and the old
has passed away for this season. Ohio cheese
is still abundant and quiet. Fresh eggs that
are above suspicion are firm at quotations.
The untimely cool weather OF late mas
checked the upward movement of lemons,
and prices are a shade lower. Oranges are
scarce and firm and bananas are steady:
California oranges are close to the end OF
their career for this season.
