Butter. Cbeese and Eggs

The recently advanced prices for the upper
grades OF butter and eggs maintained with
out difficulty, but the market is utterly lacking
in snap, business being Of the desultOTy charac-
ter incident to the vacation season. Receipts or
eggs are steadily decreasing and all grades are
cleaning up as well could be expected though
cheap California stock is commencing 70 feel
the effects of the competition OF eastern goods.
There is plenty of butter coming TO hand. but
the proportion OF strictly fine table goods in
the arrivals is none too large and the market
is firm for such stock. There is not much move
ment in cheese and all handlers carrying
liberal supplies There sales under the
call on the exchange yesterday and changes in
the quotations slight California second

cheese declined 12c n pound.
Receipts 81 800 lbs butter, 1890 lbs

Hay and Feedstnffs

The market for hay is still under the influence
OF the 2,l0S tons which arrived on Monday. and
is quoted dull the medium and lower grades par
ticularly. Feedstuffs continUe in light supply
with quotations unchanged.
The circular. of Somers & Co. SAYS of hay:
Shipments of hay to the San Francisco mar
ket are steadily the increase, the total for
the week ending today amounting to 51O tons
IN comparison with 3, 40 for last week and . 90
Tor the week preceding that. Because of this in
crease there has been decided weakening in
values here. and rceiyers have had the greatest
difficulty In handling arrivals without occasoning
TOO pad break. On standard grades prices are
OH from o0c to 81 per ton, and IL present shin
ments are not curtailed there will be still fur
ther decline. Considerable quantities have been
contracted for shipment to this market and if
cars are furnished freely we may expect a rather
disappointing market for several weeks TO come
1T Is undeniable that the hay crop is short
throughout the state this year, yet with the ex-
ception or the Livermore district, all principal
nay centers seem to have sufficient quantities. To
I'LL all available warehouse space with the
warehouses full and general dullness in trade
there will be but little chance for our market to
make material advances here unless the interior
warehouses are called upon to supply other mar
kets than our own
Although there is some little talk of improved
business conditions, yet no improvements of any
