heavy receipts, amounting to 1878 sacks
considerably more than have been receive'
on any one day in many weeks Not al
of the onions are OF the best quality an
therefore present wholesale prices, Sl1
per hundredweght, are maintained.
Butter, eggs and cheese remain firm
published quotations.
The few peaches offered on the stree
of poor quality, anything like fame.

though the weather was cool and not con
ducive to watermelon buying, there were s.
few on the market that the supply cleaned
up at an early hour. Both cantaloupes AM
watermelons will be disposed Of entirel
within another week, jobbers say.

for cauliflower, cabbage, peas and beans
