Potatoes, Onions and Vegetables.

The situation In Potatoes is unchanged.
There are plenty of table varieties hand
and only the best offerings receiving any
attention. Low grade Burbanks move very
slowly. although offered at easy rates. All seed
varieties firm under light supplies and a
steady inquiry from the interior. Onions were
pretty well cleaned up and firm. The steamer
Ventura. which arrived from Australia on the
preceding day. brought up 500 crates of fancy
stock, which are being held for shipping.
Receipts of southern vegetables very
light and most kinds cleaned up promptly at
higher prices. Asparagus from the river sold
at 50c per pound. Two small boxes came in.

Poultry and Game.

Trade in Poultry was active. large young
chickens particularly being in damand, and
prices of everything on the list we'll
maintained with a marked degree of firmness.
Two cars of Western including one that came
in late on Tuesday were placed sale Lead
ing retailers were purchasing freely OF West
ern stock in expectation of light receipts from
that quarter during the coming week. Receipts
of Game were light. but the demand was like
wise, and weak prices ruled for everything
except Canvasback Ducks. Yesterday was the
last day which Wild Ducks could be legally
sold

Hay and Eeedstuffs.

No further changes in Feedstuffs are re-
ported. Hay continues dull and weak The
Receipts OF Hay for the past week have
amounted to 1850 tons. an increase OF 260 tons
rivals are the heaviest we have experienced
during the whole winter. There has been
nothing to warrant such heavy shipments, for
the demand for Hay has been very slack;
consumers buying only enough for their
immediate use and dealers are unwilling to
stock up to any extent hoping they may be
able to purchase later at reduced figures
General trade In all lines of merchandise Is
reported dull, the Hay market suffering fully
as much, If not more. than other lines
"The demand for Hay for Oriental shipment
Is practically at an end for every vessel load
Russian ports has been captured by the jap
anese. This has discouraged shipments IN that
direction, and although it is undoubtedly .rue
that forage supplies are short In Eastern
Siberia and large premiums are offered for
safe delivery shippers are unwilling to take
the risk of capture.
Coastwise shipments have fallen off consid-
erably OF late and Southern California. with
the possible exception of San Diego, seems to
have sufficient supplies from their own terri
No grade of Hay can be reported in good
demand here. all kinds being offered at low
all the country districts. Consequently prices
are ruling weak
