Nearly All Descriptions of Fresh
Fruit in Active Demand at
San francisco.

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept 9Th.
Nearly all descriptions of Fresh Fruit were
in active demand yesterday, and dealers were
quite well satisfied with the days movement
of trade. Receipts of produce were rather
heavy, and considerable came to hand in
poor condition. This, of course, could only
be disposed of at very low rates to peddIers.
The continuance of warm weather and the
increased inquiry has, however, enabled deal
ers TO clean up fairly well and at the same
time obtain rather better prices for the strictly
cholce varieties. Peaches are in good supply,
but less plentiful than one week ago. Prices
are slightly easier, but the best grades are
heid well in hand. Silver Prunes are now
making q fair display and the demand is
moderate. Nectarines are moving of fairly
Well at quoted rates. Plums are in liberal
supply, but do not meet with as good an in
quiry as some days ago, the canneries are
not buying as freely. The demand for Grapes
IS steadily on the increase, but supplies are
also assuming large proportions and prices
are on the down grade. Watermelons and
Cantaloupes are coming to hand in liberal
quantities and the demand at present is
slightly in excess of the supply. Prices are
nlgher and stock IS firmly held. ounces are
t3e4llng fairly well, but prices are rather low.
The demand for all varieties OF vegetables is
steady, and the quoted prices are readily OBJ
aimed Tor choice stock. Dried Fruits are ar
very slow and even the low prices quoted are
easy. Large quantities of stock are still being
4eld Ia first hands in the interior. Dairy
produce meets with a goOd steady demand,
iEnG values held quite steady. Cream y
-8utter has an upward tendency. Ranch and
EASTERN Eggs are selling well at the quoted
rates. heat remains depressed, with the
volume of trade very light.
