THE BUTTER MARKET.
A D&WNWARD MOVEMENT. By Telegraph.—Press Assn—CopyrighfLoudon, Dec. 1. The butter market Is tending downward. The decline has come earlier than expected owing to the heavy fall in Danish, which is obtainable, at about 2255, a drop of 50s in a fortnight. Free first grade salted Victorian is quoted up to 178 s; unsalted Victorian, 192 s tc 1945; finest New Zealand salted is quoted at about 196 s to 200 s. This is largely nominal, as there is little available owing to the non-discharge of five steamers which have been in the docks for periods ranging from four weeks to two days. This is due to the butter being stowed under the meat., for which no storage is available, ebnsequent’y the vessels cannot be discharged. Consignees are making the strongest complaints to the shipping companies and the dock authorities, but there is no present prospect of improvement. .
