was nevertheless fair trade in nearly all the
leading commodities, particularly in mer-
chandise.
Spot Wheat is held with greater firm
ness, though the demand Is not OF pressing
character In speculative circles, Wheat
shows quite buoyant tone and a marked adj
vance was established in futures at the Call
Board session yesterday morning. The week
closes on firm Barley market, at advanced
prices. There is a fair local demand, while
the shipping inquiry is still of active char
acter.
Receipts of produce were moderate and well
proportioned to the requirements of trade.
Fresh Fruits of all descriptions are quite
active and the movement from day to day is
large. Oranges are in liberal supply and gem
orally low priced. Strictly choice navels are
scarce and held firmly, but the medium
grades, of which the bulk of present stocks is
composed, are weak In value and wholly
favorable TO the buying element. The in
qulry for Apples has practically ceased.
Cherries are offered Tor sale in small guam
Titles but the price is high and the quality
scarcely up to what could lie termed choice
fruit. Strawberries are rapidly growing in
public favor, and the daily receipts are quite
large. Prices are lower and downward.
Early Vegetables are plentiful and cheap,
and the movement OF trade is large. Potatoes
and Onions are in moderate supply ana deal
ers are firm IN their asking figures.
The Market for Dried Fruit shows scarcely
any change. Prices are steady and stocks on
hand are light. The indications for the COM
ing seasons trade are fine however.
Dairy Products are selling well at the quoted
rates. Creamery and fancy roll Butter are
higher and held firmly, but other grades are
practlcally unchnneed. Eggs are arriving
freely ana the demand is steady. Prices are
q shade weaker, bat are nevertheless fair.
Cheese is in abundant supply and selling
readily at the recently reduced rates. Poul-
try is dull and prices weak,
