SACRAMENTO MARKET.
The Week Opens With Very Little
Doing in Local Circles.

SACRAMENTO, August Sth.
The market opened very weak in Fruits,
and continued so throughout the day, few
buyers appearing TO offer relief. The conse-
quence is that dealers have large stock on
hand which could be had at reduced prices.
Peaches and Plums suffered most, quite a re-
duction in the retail price of both Fruits be-
ing noted. First quality Watermelons were in
good supply. prices at retail ranging at from
10 10 20 cents each, according TO size. Ber-
r1es are really drug, there being but little de-
mand even at the cheap prices ruling.
MOST lines OF Vegetables also suffered a de-
cline in rates, quite a drop having taken
place as regards String and Wax Beans, Gu
cumbers, Tomatoes and Green Corn.
:, Dairy Produce and Poultry are holding
their own well, there being but slight tiuctua-
uons in rates from day to day.
Ham and Bacon continue very firm with
little prospect OF drop in the next few weeks.
