GENERAL PRODUCE
The minneapolis Market.

Saturday, May %.
The week brought decline in butter, con-
tinued throughout, but at the close there is
little better feeling, and 1t seems the gem
eral opinion on the street this morning that
prices now are about as low as they will
20 for the present. Extra creameries are
now Quotable at 17Q171zc, and at these prices
are hrmer than on any day OF this week.
The call for large lots is improving and SELL
ers VINO are willing to let go at current
ngures, not holding too firmly for outside
prices, are now able to move stock more
freely, and are not dependent so much upon
retail demand as was the case earlier in the
week, Receipts meanwhile are running well
up: The principal improvement noted is. on
oairles. which were extremely weak, but are
now In better tone.
Eggs are quiet and with a decided easy
maintained as quoted. Receipts are running
large and good part Of the stock is being
taken to go into storage A noticeable feature
OF the receipts Is the poorer quality. Strictly
stock brings 101ac or a shade better.
veal has been easy in tone and fancy is
now Quotable at 67RQ7c, and fair business
doing at inside figures. The fish trade is
mand on all lines. Poultry is on steady
basis. The country reports are to the effect
that. liberal shipments will be made, and IL
this develops. prices will probably ease off,
At present there is good demand at current
quotations.
The market for new vegetables is active
and firm except for the natural declines due
to heavier receipts as the season progresses.
Fruits are active, with an especially good
demand for Strawberries.
