THE APPLE MARKET.
DUNEDIN IMPORTERS LOSE. (By Telegraph.— Special to "Star."! DUNEDIN, this day. Some fruiterers in Dunedin contracted a while ago to buy Canadian apples from Auckland agents at a price which plus charges means 20/ a case in Dunedin and now have to compete with other retailers who preferred to buy in Dunedin and were able to get their apples this morning at 15/. For two or three weeks Canadian and American apples have gone back in price, the reason being that New Zealand apples this season have lasted longer than usual, and are still coming out of cool store in good condition. Nelson is sending lots of Stunners and some Democrats and Doughertys to the Dunedin market, and Central Otago apples are also obtainable.
