The fruit market was still badly consested
with common offerings of Peaches chiefly of
the Hale's Early variety. which moved very
slowly at 25d35e per small box. The abun-
dance of poor fruit had a depressing effect on
the sale Of superior quality offerings and the
st. John variety of yellow, which were in COM
paratively light supply were weak with SOC
per box extreme figure. Receipts of baskets
from the river were light and some exception
ally fine lots of yellow commanded small
premium on the wharf P1ums. Prunes and
common Pears were Abundant with rrices ir
regular. while fine offerings of Apples and good
Bartlett Pears were steady under a good de-
mand both for local and shipping ac-
count. Apricots and Figs did better under
decreased receipts and the first crop of the
latter is about exhausted in some sections.
