SACRAMENTO MARKET.
Business Fairly Active in Shipping
Circles.

In shipping circles trade is fairly active,
with good prospect that the near future will
mark change for the better. Cherries and
Apricots are the principal fruits handled by
shippers while Peaches and Plums also come
in for share of trade in the East. The latter
varieties, however, are in limited supply, and
are mostly handled in parcel lots. A local
shipping firm has made contracts until July
10Th for Bartlett Pears, paying 81 per box of
oIty pounds. Colored Plums are quoted at
80 cents per crate OF twenty pounds. 1t is too
early yet to contract for Peaches for shipping

Peaches, ApTicotS and Plums from Nacavile
and TWO carloads of assorted fruits from Win
ters, all destined to Eastern markets.

good demand for all receipts. Butter is on the
rise, valley being quoted at retail 45 cents per
