ONIONS.
(Special to "The PoBt.")
AUCKLAND, This Day. In Auckland the market for onions is somewhat easier. This is due to tho fact that two shipments from Japan, whence practically all supplies for this market are now obtained, arrived here almost at the same time. They were ordered for June and July shipment from Japan, but, through shipping difficulties at Sydney, the June cargo was delayed there, and meanwhile the July allotment caught it up. This is causing a temporary congestion, and prices have eased. However, it is not expected that this movement will be sustained, as the total arrivals from Japan are not likely to exceed requirements.
Tho Canadian onions, which follow on, are not expected in any quantity before October Some smaller lots may arrive earlier, but for these landed cost will be higher.
