IN BOSTON MARKETS.
Signs that Butter Will Be Lower--Egg
Prices Also Diminishing.

Boston, Dec. 2o.--The butter market
gives signs that the next change in
prices will be lower. There is no great
snap to the demand in any direction and
a clearance of current receipts is little
more difficult than it was recently. Even
fine fresh goods, receipts of which are
very light, are not cleaning up as readi-
ly as they did last week; this is a
reflection of weaker advices from out
side markets as well as a belief that the
low ebb of production has passed and
that soon the receipts will begin to ex-
pand. Supplies of ordinary fresh but
ter are large, as are also cold storage
stocks, with holders more anxious for
business and less. insistent on quota
tions than recently. The cheese market
still derives strength from good ex.
port demand. Receipts Of eggs are in
creasing faster than the demand and
prices are headed lower.
