Sixty-nine thousand cwt. of butter, equal to the total imports into tho United Kingdom for tho week ending Saturday, as compared with 66,OO0cwts. for "the corresponding period last year- The Copenhagen official quo tuition is two kroners lower. New Zealand salted butter at 122s : Danish butter, 1295: finest Australian salted, 118s; unsalted. 120s. Frozen meat: Very poor demand at unchanged prices. FRUIT AND PRODUCE MARKETS. Only a moderate amount of business has been transacted in the fruit and produce markets during tho week, and with tho exception of a shipment of Fiji bananas very little of note has been put through* 'Frisco apples, transhipped at Wellington from the Moana, are due 011 Monday, and will meet with a fairly good demand. Further shipments of Canadian apples from Vancouver, ex the Marama, are due on the 19th inst. The Navua arrived from Suva with upwards of 4000 packages of Bananas, and owing to the scarcity and almost a famine of fruit generally, prices were very good. Only 80 cases reached the market, ex Maheno, from Sydney on Monday, consisting chiefly of oranges. The demand was again good. Local grown lemons are soiling well, and gooseberries aro now making their appearance. New Potatoes : The market is good, although yesterday's supplies were much heavier than expected, consequently values were slightly less than in the earlier part of the weekOld Potatoes: Very little business is "being done. 'Frisco Onions: Market easier, late . arrivals from 'Frisco are not in good order; demand moderate. Fresh eggs and butter continue to sell well, with a good demand existing. All lines of vegetables and greenstuff are commanding high prices. Poultry is still in excellent demand, and good prices rule for best-conditioned birds. Young pigs are in strong demand at high) prices. FIELD PRODUCE. Potato?*; Prime, £12 ton: new, best utinples ' 2d to 2j<i, medium IJd to lii'l. Onions : 'Frisco, j 15» out.
