ket during ihe week. 
The first potatoes of the season from Havana, 63 
barrels, came In Tuesday. 
Apple prices are bigh and receipts small, but the 
high price limits the demand. 
Arrivals of oraeges have been very heavy, and the 
quality of many of thsm poor. 
A dealer who Imports Easter lilies from Bermuda 
reports orders already received. 
The unseasonable weather hurts trade In many 
lines, and upsets things generally. 
Asparagus has been received in small lota from 
California, but of poor quality, and low prices were

ance and greater Interest In the meetings of the

of oleomargarine without funds. Otllcers for 1894,
