OFFICE oF PTTTsBURG DISPATCH,
FRIDAY, July 8.
COUNTRY PRODUCE (Jobbing Prices)-There
is better supply of eggs in our markets
than for some days past, but strictly fresh
stock is steady at quotations. There were
this being above the price at other trade
centers, large quantities were drawn to this
point, and as a result markets weakened.
Choice EIgin creamery butter is steady at
quotations. Low grades are quiet, and coun-
try roll butter is very slow. There was q
free movement of fruits and vegetables to-
day at former prices. Trade proved so lively
at Diamond markets that dealers found it
necessary to replenish stock early in the
day. Friday is uniformly the best day of the
week in produce lines, and wheE it precedes
holiday is unusually good. Southern po-
tatoes are coming to the front for the most
part in bad shape, and markets are weak.
