unchanged. Rice continues In very lair
demand. Canned goods trade continues
very dull and buyers holding off and hold
ers anxious TO reduce stocks as mnch as
possible. Private advices from the East

out as well as expected.
Delaware and Maryland will have a
large crop of apples this season, ana can
ners and driers will doubtless handle con-
siderable quantities Of the fruit.

There is nothing new TO note III connec-
ton with the egg market; while demand
is only fair the supply of strictly fresh is
small and for such, prices are maintained.
Choice butter continues in demand, aud as
will be noted we have advanced our quota
tons on creamery. Cheese continues active
and for fine stock prices are still tending
upward. Cheese manufacturers claim that
our market has been too low for some time
past. and will have to advance unless there
is a reaction elsewhere. Green apples, as
we'll as all kinds Of domestic fruits, in
large supply and prices weak. The arri-
walls of potatoes have fallen off, but the
supply is fully equal to present wants.
