The week starts under more favorable au- |
spices than the last closed with a fair volume /
of business transacted. There is more disposi- 1
tion on the part OF spectators to buy Wheat, !
which is attributable to a prospect for better
marketing abroad. and prices in both spot
and speculative markets are slightly higher

ter feeling all around predominate5. The /
Wheat sold on Change to-day footed up only |
700 tons, of which 600 ions were Buyer De (
cember at from 81 345&91 345s, and 100 tons

grades of Cheese only sell well. Eggs are
higher and firm at quotations.
Good onions are scarce and there is good
inquiry for them. Good Potatoes also sell
WELL but are in adequate supply.
Choice Fruit is scarce ill the local markets.

tions. Choice Pears, Peaches and Apples es-
peciany are desirable Considerable of the

higher on each variety for first quality. Citrus
