Potatoes. Onions and Vegetables

The Potato market is running along in the same
old monotonous groove as for several weeks
past. Supplies, while still rather limited, are
well up to requirements. the high prices have
checked the consumptive demand to such an
extent that retailers are limiting their orders
and are only taking enough to tide them over
from day to day. Receivers are making no con-
cessions TO buyers. however. and there is not
likely to be any decline in prices for some
time. Onions are rather weak than otherwise.
Oregon lots have to be sold quickly. they
are coming TO hand In rather poor shape as
result of being too long In transit.
Slender supplies and high prices continue to
characterize the market for miscellaneous vege-
tables. Anything that comes to hand in good
condition finds prompt sale at firm rates from
day to day.

Receipts of Oranges continued heavy, Eve
more cars arriving yesterday, making twenty
five cars in two days. Under these heavy ar
rivals and with trade only moderately active.
the market is naturally weak and prices are
ANYTHING but steady. Desirable sizes of a few
favored brands of Navels sell up to 81 80 per
box in small way, but sales of general offer
ings above 81 per box are rare Tangerines
and Crane Fruit are weak and lower, in SYM
pathy with Oranges. white Lemons hold up
we'll stocks being rather light and the demand
good Apples and ripe Bananas meeting
with the usual inquiry and satisfactory prices.
Telegraphic advices from spain to New York
say that the weather is the severest ever known
and that the Lemon crop has been completely
ruined. If the reports are authentic, the East
will be obliged to draw upon this State for
supplies more heavily than heretofore and will
thus give this line somewhat Of an impetus.

heavy, the proportion of fresh extras IN the ar
barely sufficient to satisfy the demand The
market for fine table goods was very strong
yesterday and extras were bid up to 3S1ae, but
there were sales, receivers were very
35c per pound. With the demand of good pro-
portions and an actual shortage reported IN
some quarters. indications favor firm and ad-
vancing market until the northern counties com
weeks yet. The under grades of fresh stock
clean up readily from day to day. being in de-
mand for shipment well for local use.
The heavy influx of Eggs from all producing
districts continues the receipts averaging about
1000 cases a day. The market cannot absorb
all of the arrivals, even at the low prices pre-
yailing. and, as unfavorable weather prevents
storing on a large scale. there is quite an ac-
cumulation on hand. The market was weak
yesterday with selected and firsts slightly lower.
