! surplus wheat OF the state at 350,000 tons and
the surplus for the Coast at 100000 tons
Wheat receipts continue light, and prices
for old have shaded off slightly from last
weeks quotations. New is auotable at about
the same as old, though but little has yet Deen
offered Flour is in fair demand both for ex-
port and for home consumption; prices steady.
Barley has been quite active for the week
with fair inquiry but light stock; the
market is partly supplied from Oregon. Corn
is without essential change in price, stock light
but sufficient to meet all present demands.
Buckwheat is firm but in limited supply, and
fair prices are obtainable. Rye is scarce, but
with light demand, and prices remain as for
some weeks past. The old crop of pota-
toes is nearly exhausted. New are arriving
freely, and the market is gradually weakening
in prices The old crop of onions are entirely
out of market and new are plenty and cheap
The market is nearly bare of hops Receipts
of wool have fallen of very materially and al
though sales have been large yet the present
tendency is to lower prices-the market East
showing weakness. Prices realized for the
bulk of the Spring clip to date have been fair,
giving satisfaction to producers The general
quality of the clip has been above the average
for the season. Fall wool is in light stock,
and being poor and undesirable, has been
much neglected, consequently working off but
slowly even at the extreme low prices at which
it is offered. Dairy produce has been coming
in quite freely because the demand was good
and fair prices obtanable, but with supplies
constantly arriving from the East by rail, the
prices of butter and eggs have declined slight
ly. Receipts of fruit of seasonable varieties
are increasing daily, and for most all kinds
there is an active demand, and good prices are
realized.
WHEAT-The market is quite dull and in
active. There has been aslight falling off in
prices, which favors the buyers somewhat, but
there will not probably be any particular
movement until the offering of the new crops
on the market The first sale of the new crop
was made at Davisvlle-100 tons at 81 So
per centel, There is quite a large amount
of tonnage in the harbor disengaged, say So
600 tons; but freights are looking up little,
it being quite difficult to charter frst-class
grain carrying ships at rates current for the
past three months. The probable advance on
freights for the new crops will be from IS to
lbs. This, taken together with extreme low
prices ruling in Liverpool, operates discour-
agingly to shippers here. We now quote good
shipping grades at 81 55@Sl 60, and choice
milling at 81 6719@1 20, the latter an extreme
rate Latest Liverpool quotations are for
