Poultry Receipts Are Large, but Prices
Hold Steady-Fresh Vegetables I'm
Demand-Light Grain Markets.

The cheerful sun, after several days of
rain. and indications OF continued good
weather. gave a good deal of snap to trade
yesterday. The dry goods houses seemed to
be among those most benefited. Mail orders
were numerous, number Of buyers were
in and II was probably one Of the best days
of business for the present year. Confec-
TONERS report trade as improving. Drug
gists are quite busy, with a large move
ment of linseed oil and paints. and in drugs
business is active and prices firm. Flour
as dealers are making concessions to effect
good sales. There is a continued good de-
mand for new crop vegetables and green
stuff and for nice fresh receipts full prices
are readily obtained. Fancy apples are do
ing better, but there is no improvement in
ordinary stock. Florida oranges are NOV
ing freely at steady prices. Bananas and
Florida grape fruit are in good demand
and prices firm. California oranges are
coming forward in better condition than
the earlier arrivals. Good strawberries are
meeting with fair demand. but poor stock
moves slowly. Increased receipts make
Irish potatoes easy. and early reductions
are probable. Choice Danish cabbage is
Onions continue in large supply and are
weak. Receipts of poultry are increasing,
but thus far prices are well maintained
Eggs are arriving more freely and unless
there should be much colder weather a de-
cline of or cents a dozen is predicted
for next week. Really choice butter is in
light supply and prices are firm. Inferior
stock moves slowly and at lower figures.
