marketable goods only. Jobber' prices are higher
Lower grades may be sold fnr less. Fancy good
commanded higher prices
considerable strengthening was felt yesterday on
poultry and live stock. The advancing figures were
attributed to the very light receipts and to the fact
mat the market supply was itself low. II was ex
pected. however. that the Of Tey strong figures
would be but temporary, a material increase viii
De felt in the supply soon the country roads
open. Eggs ruled stronger.
The market for fruits and vegetables. as far as
hglires were concerned changed little. Owing to the
unfaEorable weather in Florida, receipts Of goods
from that section have fallen of materially and the
prices hold firm. Quotations were:
