Country Produce-Jobbing Prices.
Supply of eggs from the Ohio Valley was
large to-day, and as result of large receipts
markets weakened. Sellers were forced to
come down, though they did it with no cheer
full spirit. The top of the market was l9c per
dozen and 1Sc was the rule. Prospects are
good for a much lower egg market before the
week Is out. Elgin creamery butter is lower
and our prices will be reduced on Friday, when
this weeks supplies will be on the market.
There is a scarcity of onions and prices are
firm. In tropical fruit lines. lemons are in ac-
tive demand, with a tendency to higher prices,
while oranges and bananas are dull, for the
reason that quality of offerings is not up to
standard.
