ON THELOCAL MARKETS
PRODUCE MARKET
WAS VERY STEADY

The receipts OF country produce were
rather smaller yesterday than the
commission merchants and wholesalers
had expected, and the demand being
active prices for every thing were very
stiff and In some cases a fraction high
er. Eggs, however, were little droopy
at former quotations Several round
u lots were sold at 10 cents per dozen.
Iyand 1t is possible that this figure was
|Ishaded fraction In some instances.
7 The demand for Florida vegetables
was very active and the figures asked
and readily obtained were a shade
|shigher than on Wednesday, Fowls
are selling well, and the few spring
|5chickens that have made their appear
ance are very high. 1t looked yester.
l;day as if every commission man on
3the DOCK Will be able to shut up Sat
tlrday night with clean house. unless
the receipts to-day are much larger

biando de asuntos-y es que la Co.
mission de Anemla ha comprado en-
Europa (Alemania) varios instru-
mentos que lie Son necesarios para
sus estudios y experimentos en- la
expresada enfermedad.
La Aduana, de acuerdo con Ia
ley ha cobrado por estos efectos Tin
As por 100 de derechos. Dicha
Comisi6n -sigue Mr. Post-s6lo tie
ne en- presupuesto una asignaci6n
de 500. 900 para sus atenciones. De
ahf que pagando esos derechos de
Aduana tendra que distraer esa
cantidad de sus fondos.
Pero es el case curioso que esos
ingresos de aduana sobre importa-
ci6n de! extrangero, ingresan en-
el Tesoro y el Tesoro mismo, que
es el goblerno, quien lie asign6 la
partida de 500, 900 a Ia Comisi6n,
aparecera pagandose y cobrandose
al propio tempo.
Ahora acurre otra cosa. La
Comisi6n de Anemia, que no Sc
Siente muy contenta con pagar esos
derechos, ha alegado que seg6u
una ley de los Estados Unidos,
queda exento de pago de dere-
chos de aduana todo 10 que Sc I'm.
porte por sociedades benefcas con
destino q las ciencias, las artes
y las religiones.

la Comisi6n de anemia es solamen.
