Boston. NOV. THE butter market
has broken under the influence of dull
trade and a pressure to realize on the
part of receivers. There is a good deal
OF interest in the way the market will
turn and some nervousness on the part
Of large holders of storage butter. job
blng prices are: Choice northern
creamery. 2Std30c: western. 2TG29c;
Vermont, 24M26.
Cheese is very steady, with prices
being fully sustained on the best goods.

The local fruit aud vegetable market
has continued rather dull. Prices have
not changed much. The movement of
apples continues very slow. and all eX
cept the really fancy brands haze sold
nearer the inside than outside price.

rather high. but sell well Receipts Of
pears do not amount to much and cold
storage holdings are being gradually
cleaned ont. Very few peaches are in
the market
White potatoes are higher and firm.
Receipts are large. but they include a
good deal Of stock that has been
touched 10y the frost. and the supply
OF sound ones is none too large for the
demand. Sweet potatoes do not sell
very fast, but. in the lack Of heavy of
ferinss. prices hold up fairly well. Gu
cumbers and string beans are in light
supply and high.
