Evening star., 1923-04-16
WHOLESALE MARKET.

Very few eggs were received this
morning. Mondays receipts usually
are small, but they were smaller than
usual today and the price advanced
cent a dozen. 1t is thought the
storm Saturday night prevented
movement of eggs from some of the
country districts.
A weaker butter market was re-
ported this morning. Receipts were
a trifile larger. and dealers dropped
the price l cent a pound. A further
decline Is expected shortly.
No change in meat prices was
noted today and there was an ample
supply of fruits and vegetables on
hand at last weeks prices.
