SAN FRANCISCO, september 1s''
The movement of trade in Dried Fruits con-
tinues quiet. but the tone Of the market Is
such that dealers feel encouraged with the
outlook, and this gives steadness to values.
The inquiry for new-crop Apricots is not qulle
as active as a week ago, but there is no weak
ness noticeable i'll prices. Some small Iots are
being offered but buyers seem dlsposeu 10
hold of. consequently the demand lot Ihe
time being is smaller than the supply. There
have been some sales of Peaches, and as they
were large. fancy stock, the sellers found no
difficulty in obtaining full figures. EVap-
GRATED Apples are being freely offered, and
prices are very weak, except for strictly fancy
stock. There are some offerings OF Prunes
for future delivery, but sales are slow ana
small, Notwithstanding the prices prevailing
and the fact that Prunes this year are gener-
ally much larger than for several years past.
There is almost nothing doing in Seeds, ana
il appears as though the market would re-
main at q standstiI nnless sellers make some
concessions in their asking figures. Supplies
OF Lima Beans are short, but the growing crop
1s reported to be of liberal proportions. OJher
varieties of Beans are dull, with prices low
and weak.
IN the local Produce markets yesterday the
volume OF trade was fairly large, and prices
We're not materially different from the ruling
rates OF the preceding day. Fresh Fruits are
in abundant supply, and the low prices make
the demand quite active. Choice Peaches are
held steady, out medium stock is variable IN
value and rather slow. Apples are plentiful,
but dull and cheap. Cantaloupes and Water-
melons meet with moderate inquiry at
quotations. Grapes are in oversupply, anu
there is considerable shading OF prices IN
order to effect sales. Plums continue dun.
Dairy Produce is selling we'll, although
prices on BptIer are rather unsettled. Eastern
Eggs are moving of freely, but California
stock is quiet. Poultry Is dull, and supplies
are larger than necessary.
