REVIEW OF THE WEEK.
TRADE NOT AS ACTIVE.
Texas Eggs Lead In Price Advance.
Bran. Corn and Oats Make Gains.
Decline in Poultry.

The weeks trade In the wholesale line
has not been equal in volume to the bust.
ness of some OF the preceding ones. 1t
has not been absolutely dull. however and
several influences have contributed to the
cause. The unreasonable heat In the
early part OF the week was enervating to
the produce trade and the disposition to
hold cotton In the interior has also tied
up transactions to some extent. The most
notable price advance has occurred on eggs,
which are today quoted &c higher than
week ago. Supplies Of turkeys have thin
ned out sufficiently to cause more stability
as regards prices. Grain has remained on
an upward move. Bran advanced &c and
corn and oats went &c higher In the seven
days. Onions and jumbo peanuts gained
about kc. Sugar declined 1sahc.
Florida oranges have been very plentl-
full fruit on the market. The receipts OF
deciduous fruits have been only moderate.

California and Belleheur Missouri apples
We're notable among them. Further ship.
ments OF Colorado potatoes came In. Home
grown cabbage has also made Its appear
ance. New pecans have moved freely and
brought unusual prices on account of the
short crop fears. The Improvement In
weather conditions and increased demand
on many articles give indications OF a
healthy business for this week.
Supplies Of California navel oranges are
expected to arrive during the week.
Prices on Brazil nuts have been raised
about 1c and are selling around 15c. while
those for Slcllys range about &c lower.
Quotations on fancy evaporated apples
have been marked up &C. while 1.pound
cartons and choice evaporated are nc
higher.

The receipts of Texas eggs were very much
reduced yesterday. selling prices going up

Further advances are looked for during
the week.
The Louisiana Planter says Of the cane
crop: under the influence of the magnif-
cent weather we are experiencing the cane
continues to improve In saccharne richness,
and the tonnage is also proving satisfac-

| nevertheless better than was expected some

therefore be pronounced a satisfactory one,
