PRODUCE.
Pirtsburg Produce Market.

PITTsBURG, PA, TUESDAY EVENING,
July 3.-Fruit and vegetables were quite
active to-day in anticipation Of the holiday
trade The market was well supplied and
and prices steady without much change.
Elgin reported decline OF ~ for fancy
creamery, but dealers here will make
no change. Ia fact they report bet
ter demand for butter, and il the railroad
strike continues and receipts are cut of,
an advance is not improbable. CONSUMERS
evidently take the same view OF the situa-
tiOn, hence the Improvement in demand.
Eggs are steady and unchanged. So FAR
the strike has not directly affected the sup
ply of fruits aud vegetables here, out COM
mission merchants have received advices
from shippers to the effect that railroads
were refusing to accept perishable freight,
and if present conditions prevail for few
days longer, supplies in this market Will
be materially reduced. There is some dis
position 10 speculate on this contingency,
and one dealer is reported to have bought
up Il carloads of potatoes which had been
shipped here on Monday.
