The herald., 1895-04-05

during the entire day was decidedly un-
pleasant for moving about, and in conse-
quence there were but comparatively few
arrivals from the country, and merchants
as rule remained indoors.
Eggs were again weak and quotations
fell off. A few sales were reported at lac,
but they were exceptions, the prevailing
rates being 15@16c. While the market is
well supplied there is no surplus, and
there was no effort to effect sales even at
the top figure.
Good potatoes are firm and there is con-
siderable inquiry for first-class stock.
Several firms have on hand a large lot of
inferior potatoes which are being dis
posed of at any prices to realize, and this
factor has a disquieting effect on the mar
ket. Choice poultry is also in demand
and no trouble is experienced in effecting
sales of young stock; the demand tor
supply.
