ing in value, though the demand for the
lower grades Is slackening up little.

merry and nearby. 42u1ic: eastern ex-
tras, 35u40c; western, 30G32c.
The fruit and vegetable market does
not change much. The demand still
shows decided lack Of snap and
changes in prices have been few and
unmportant. There has been no i'm
provement in apples and the movement
OF other fruits has been limited.
Pears have gone a little better. but
there is still room for much improve
ment.
Grapes have been only moderately
active and top quotations have been
obtained for only very fancy lots. BaS
ket grapes have about run their course
for this season, and cons.gnments from
California are steadily failing off
A shortage Of cars at the shipping
points has kept down the receipts Of
potatoes, ana since the buying has been
steady, prices have ruled firm. The ~
rivals Of sweet potatoes also have heen
light. The buying has been !iveIler
and they have gone higher String
ard butter beans are more plenty and
much cheaper than they were. Cab
bages are again coming in freely and
are slightly easier Onions continue
plenty and az they do not sell very fast
they are no more than steady. Celery.
lettuce and cucumbers are firm, and
Hubbard squashes have hardened
slightly
