market presents steady tone. Prices OF Oats
are firm under light offerings.
The Vegetable market opened steady to-day
with supplies plentiful. Old Potatoes are very
firm. Choice Onions are higher with light
offerings.
The demand for fresh Fruits is fair and
prices are well sustained. The receipts to-day
were $40 chests Strawberries, 729 boxes

little doing in Citrus Fruits and prices are
weak, with stocks on hand heavy.

as yet, is weak under a close-down in the
shipping demand. Eggs are weak and dull,
with stocks accumulating. Cheese is weak
under heavy receipts.
