grapes are weak and dragging; receipts
were about $500 boxes; the weather is
against their sale. About 80 chests of
berries in to-day and prices are lower; a
1ew chests of Strawberries brought $5G6.
SLOW sale for Pomegranates and Persim-
mons; too many of the latter here. No
xfesh arrivals of Oranges to-day; those re-
celved yesterday are not going very
rapidly. being somewhat green. Nuts,
particularly Walnuts arrive freely, and
move fairly well at quoted prices; the hol-
day trade has not set in as yet Cranber-
fies have advanced; the demand has i'm
proved.
Butter is easy, with the exception of
Fancy dairies, which are slightly ad-
vanced. Cheese is firm at advanced
prices all around. The Egg situation is
encouraging; all kinds do well, excepting
store lots; the tendency of prices is up
ward; select ranch bring more than the
outside figure but not in sufficient quanti-
ties to advance the quotation.
