Especial Correspondence REcoRD-US1oS.l

shipments Of fruits and seasonable vegetables
were very large. There was also a free de-
nand for fruits from Salt Lake City. Gamers
are buying canning fruit quite freely, larger
than they had claimed that they would. On
'Change and also at Offices there were more
samples Of Wheat and Barley exposed, but
buyers view were below those of sellers. 1t is
now claimed that the crop of Honey in this
State is not much, if any, more than from so
TO so per cent. OF the crop in last year. Sales
of Dried Apricots are reported for shipment in
next month to Chicago.
The local moneT market to-day was reported
easy, with collections fairly well made. There
appeared to be fewer complaints of poor collec-
lions from retailers. Silver appears 10 be
strengthening. This is due to purchases
abroad. Sterling Exchange is stiff. Towards
the close of next month more commercial
bills win be on the market, which will meet
the local requirements These bills viii be
drawn against wheat shipments.
