and, consequently, their departure had no in
huence on present matters. In the absence of
any pressing demand, prices keep stationary,
there being but little variation in quotations
for quite long while. The demand for spot
purposes is anything but general in Barley,
while values are not particularly buoyant.
AT the same time stocks are being steadily low
cred by continued shipping trade, and it is this
circumstance that gives the market whatever
tone it may possess, beside ufiording holders
more or less encouragement to stand under
asking rates. The Dat market runs along in
quite an easy fashion. There is liberal dis
play of offerings, but sellers are not disposed
to force business or even to invite quicker
custom by making concessions. Firm hold
ing Is feature OF the situation, and buyers
have to pay full rates for "a really desirable
article.
The Poultry market is in good shape and
prices are steady under fair demand for
California stock, which comes in light. Game
Is dull.
The Butter market continues weak, with
prices steady. Eggs are fairly active, with
liberal receipts. Prices are unchanged. Mild
new Cheese is in good demand
There are no material changes reported in
fresh fruits, and arrivals of new varieties are
very late tor the season. Oranges are weak
and in light demand Apples are scarce.
Lines are steady ut quotations.
The Vegetable market is in fairly good
shape with a ready sale for early varieties.
The Potato market is firm with hardening
tendency, the receipt of late being very light,
with stocks well cleaned up. onions are I'M
changed, but strongly held at quotations. \
few Egg Plant and Green Corn were offered
