steamer took 6,226 barrels, and there were
about 200 barrels taken for the Hawaiian
Islands. Oats and Corn remain unchanged;
receipts of the former are light and of
the latter more plentiful. Rye is quiet
and easy
The prospect for Beans is, not bright,
particularly colored. There are still con-
siderable old crop in the country, and
the new crop will be in evidence soon; how
prices on both are to be maintained Is not
clear.
Potatoes are firm, and some varieties
are higher. Onions are in light supply, ad-
vanced and firm. receipts were 553 boxes
of Asparagus, 1876 boxes of Rhubarb, 753
sacks of Peas and 216 sacks of New Pota-
toes. Asparagus was little off to-day,
although some extra brings more than
our top figures. Peas took quite a tumble;
as will be noticed, receipts were quite lib
eral. Rhubarb is scarce and brought more
money. There are some fine Mexican
Green Peppers offering. String Beans
We're more plentiful and weaker.
A few drawers of Raspberries were re-
ceived and sold for 81 80 per drawer.
There We're also few Gooseberries re-
ceived. Cherries consisted of 65 boxes,
but some of the red variety were cracked
and sold slowly. Strawberries arrived to
the extent of 40 chests, but there were
SO many muddy and others green that
they run at low figures. The Orange de-
mand has picked up somewhat, but prices
show no Improvement Mexican Lines
rule firm, with light stocks on hand.
Lemons are dull Walnuts, Peanuts and
Pine Nuts are firm, but other varieties are
weak. There are plenty of Island
Bananas, but not many Bluefelds. Pine
apples are scarce No further changes in
Dried Fruits from Saturdays revised list.
Butter is steady, and there is no imme-
date prospect of change Cheese is
weak and lower for fancy mild new. Eggs
are easy and lower prices are anticipated.
A car of Eastern Poultry is on the mar
ket; Hens sold for S6a6. 80 per dozen.
California is in light receipt and very lit
tie demand. Not enough Game received
