CREAMERY BUTTER GOES
TO 35 CENTS A POUNL
Eggs and Fruits Are Steady.
Situation in Potato Mar
ket Unchanged

In the butter list on the produce exchange
yesterday California creamery extras ad-
vanced 1l2c pound to 3Jc Hat. This change
has been expected for about a week, owing
principally to drmness of the butter market
in San Francisco.
Egg receipts were light, and the market
firm at prevailing prices. Everything points
to higher market on eggs shortly, storage
stocks moving out freely and the price
of eggs in San Francisco is 2 cents above
the highest local quotation.
Receipts Of potatoes were little more than
1890 sacks, but this had the effect of inn
proving the demoralized condition of the mar
ket but slightly. Every jobber in the city
has his house stocked to overflowing, and
a number Of cars have gone into the ware
houses Price cutting among car lot han
dlers continues, and some jobbers are shading
prices to trade. There has been q great
many potatoes consigned, and unless receipts
are curtailed there Will be a still further cut
in prices at least to the trade.
Receipts OF fish We're sufficient TO meet the
demand.
Receipts of produce: Eggs, 125 cases; butter
1852 pounds; cheese, 2196 pounds potatoes
1850 sacks beans, Sacks onions, 992 sacks;
sweet potatoes 24S sacks; apples, 1856 boxes.
