WHKA1-At present there does not seem to be any
very general movement. There is good quiet de
mand which might be considerably intensified i
holders willing to accept the prices offered
No large lot of strictly No. shipping be bought
for less than 81 42 and it is doubtful if sellers are
numerous at that figure. 1t has leaked out that
within the past two three days transfer of some
90 600 ctls has been made at 81 IS. The purchase
is said to have been purely speculative, and does
not therefore establish auoable rate The highest
price paid for shipping on Change day was 81 49,
and scarcely 5000 cts was involved in the transac
tons Miers were more active to day, picking up
several lots saw 400 ctls at 81 42, and about 600
ctls at 81 All The feeling If generally against in
vesting heavily just now. The new harvest has
fairly commenced, and accounts as to quality and
yield are quite encouraging. Under such clrcum
stances buyers delay their purchases until the latest
moment in the hope that liberal consignments may
come along and depress values Other sales include
11QQ ctl off grade, 81 33a: 1,500 do, 81 323 200 do

and No at 81 3591 37A q ctl.
BARLEY-The past week has been very satisfactory
to holders OF feed descriptions Not only has an ad-
vance of at least SC u ctl been established but the
market continues to exhibit buoyancv and it is net
improbable that values may yet be higher. The in.
qury is good and all desirable offerings Seem to find
quick custom. Sales on Change aggregated 300
SKIS feed in lots at the uniform price Of 923c while
retail parcel of 200 SKIS went at 9oc 3 ctl. For
local use there some slight inquiry for brewing
and about 600 SKIS changing hands at 81 Is o ctl.

consgnments. The highest price realized today
was S5c for sacks and 81 for boxes. Some lots in

box OF White, which remained unsold late in the
day. Yesterday the first Cantaloupes and Crab
Apples of the season arrived, the former coming
from Winters and the latter from the Sacramento
river. Peaches are coming in freely. Curr tnts and
Berries show scarcely any diminution White Cher

BUTTEk-The market is wavering. Stocks are
slightly accumulating, and dealers are beginning TO
