BUSINESS BETTER ON
PRODUCE MARKET.

There was more animation on the pro-
duce market yesterday, but no chane
in prices. The receipts were somewhat
lighter h they nave been for several
days, and the demand somewhat more
active. The commission merchants We're
IN. finer trim. and wIthTsthe prospect of
more favorable weather. they seemed
inclined to push, business with a little
|. more visor.
The receipts of game were much small
or. and as the season advances the de-
lnand for birds, rabbits. etc. falls off.
On the whole. the market generally is
recovering from tho a~fter-holiday luil.
and the general outlook Is for higher
prices. The retailers seem. to realize this
fact, nd yesterdayahey showed a great
er disposition to stock up. The sales
on the block yesterday were larger
than they have been any day this week.
