The receipts Of apples have been
heavy once more, and there is large
accumulation of ordinary fruit, for
which the. market is dull and weak
The call for strictly fancy lots is fairly
good. but it is no easy matter to Sc
cure full prices on these. Bananas
are steady, but not especially active.
Cranberries are in good supply and IN
clined to work lower under slow de-
mand.
There is a good, firm market for
choice sound grapes, but they Ire by
no means abundant. Basket gnpes are
generally poor, and many foreign lots
are unsatisfactory.
White potatoes are plenty and, as the
demand is not very sharp, prices are
no more than steady. Onions are doing
better though ordinary small stock is
still dull and easy. Squashes and
celery are firm. String beans are
scarce and high. Cucumbers have
| dropped little. Turnips continue
plenty and easy Tomatoes, caullfow-
ers and brussels sprouts have advanced.
