New York. June 17. --There is some de- 

 mand for new crop of white comb honey 

 which is selling at from I4@i6c per pound, 

 according to quality. Off grades are not 

 wanted. We carried over several lots from 

 last year for which it seems almost impossi 

 ble to tind buyers at any reasonable price. 

 As to extracted the market is decidedlydull. 

 The new crop is beginning to arrive from 

 the South, and off grades find a slow sale at 

 from 55@boc per gallon, while fancy grades 

 are in better demand, and are selling at 

 around 75C?8^c per gallon, according to qual- 

 ity. West India honey, especially Porto 

 Rican. is arriving right along and finds only 

 small sale at 55C»'5;c oer gallon. Beeswax is 

 steady and firm at from 3t@36c per pound, 

 according to quality.
