SACRAMENTO, January 18th.
Business was quite brisk in the local market
yesterday, nearly up to the holiday trade, and
at the close stocks were completely cleaned up
in most lines. siskiyou. Sonoma and East
ern Apples are now in good supply. though
prices for choice article hold very firm.
There is also a large supply OF Citrus Fruits
and prices rule low. Poultry is scarce and
high. The market is swamped with Butter
and prices are very weak. Ranch Eggs are
also very plentiful, but as the supply OF Last
ern is completely exhausted dependence IS
wholly on California, and prices remain
steady. Just at present there is considerable
inquiry for Game. Shipments OF Arizona
Quail have ceased and it is utterly impossi-
bic to obtain enough in these parts to supply
the demand. Quite number of Ducks came
into market yesterday, but found ready pur-
chasers, and within an hour after their arrival
not feather was to be had. There has been a
very sharp advance in Hogs, and Hog pro-
ducts and Hams now bring fancy figure. In
all other lines the market is steady with no
changes in quotations.
