COMMERCIAL.
San rrancisco Produce Market.

FLouR-It looks as if the imports OF oregon
were likely to be discontinued. The steamer OF
the Both utimo brought only 600 bbls, and the
George w Elder to-day has light consignment OF
but $50 bbs. We quote the various brands as

WHEAT More than usual attention appeared to be
bestowed on the market to-day by leading opera
tors Shippers show more determination 10 trans
act business Even if exporters have large quanti-
ties secured in the interior 1t IS quite certain that
purchases at this port OF more or less extent VIII be
absolutely necessary. Now is the time for moving
grain and those interested do not propose to miss
the opportunity. Millers in the market for new

BARLEY-The course of the market is still up
ward. The occasion Of the movement remains
matter of more or less conjecture, though the fact
is very striklngy pronounced. Holders are quite
bold Ia their asking rates. Aweek ago 75c o ctl for
feed was the acknowledged ruling figure and q sale
at 76lc was considered very encouraging. To day
S5c y ct for feed is not only asked, but insisted on
in many instances. Apparently there Is an absence
OF speculation. Necessity ,eems to force buyers INTO
the market, and anything over sac IS grudglngiy
paid. Purchasers would clear the market OF every
thing at SOC d ct II that figure would be accepted,
while If they squarely up TO Soc g Gil IN their
oferst is not improbable that they coud De accom-
modated with larger amount imam is desirable az
the moment Coast Chevalier is making its appear
ance but there is no demand, and 1t is doubtful II
forced sales could be made unless holders be willing
to accept low prices. OFF standard bay Chevaier is
