Butter, Cheese and Eggs

The failure of butter boat to arrive on sched-
ule time from Humboldt caused a temporary
shortage of extras in some quarters yesterday and
sent the price OF that grade up &c to 261lc a
pound on the exchange. As the supplies brought
by the belated boat had not been delivered IN to
late hour, the market closed firm at the ad-
vance but some dealers were predicting a reac-
tion, basing their opinions the belief that the
receipts have not decreased sufficiently as yet
TO warrant any sharp advance in the quotations
There was nothing new in eggs the market be-
ing firm for all grades with receipts of Cali
fornia stock still running light. The quotations
The following sales were made the ex-
change:
Butter-10 cases of extras at 27c 10 at 26c
and 20 at 2612c pound.
Eggs-10 cases of extras at 3515c dozen.
Receipts were 500 lbs butter, 81 800 lbs
cheese and ,250 cases eggs

by sales bids and offers on the floor of the dairy
exchange. Prices in the street, while governed
by the exchange quotations, generally range from
