brisk and fancy lots OF Burbanks would have
brought higher prices had there been any OBJ
tainable. There were very few river Burbanks
offering and prices were largely nominal. Prices

Butter, Cheese and Eggs.

Almost all Butter houses quoted the market
weak and top-heavy, with large stocks and
liberal receipts In view of the immense sup
plies known to be in cold storage, and which
will be carried over into the coming season,
the commission merchants are timid about
storing and say that thus far they are doing
nothing in this direction except In the way of
filling small orders This course, If pursued.
will soon lead to an overstocked and depressed
market which tends to render the current
situation uncertain and shaky Prices, how
ever, remain unchanged
worthy of note.
Eggs ruo steady at unchanged prices. Re
CENTS continue liberal and supplies are plen-
tifui and storing alone keeps stocks down to
a controlable point.
