SAN FRANCISCO MARKET.
SAN FRANCISCO, MAY 81.

SAN FRANCISCO MARKET.
| SAN FRANCISCO, May 9Th
| FLOUR-Business at the moment is mainly on
account of local wants. For export purposes
| the demand is not pressing. We quote: Best
| city extra, "a 25@5; medium, So 50@4; shipping
superfne, s. 75@$ 80 p Dbl.
| WHEAT-The English market was reported
to-day by telegraph as depressed, with decline
| OF two pence in spot parcels. With such news
at hand, ii is not to be expected that local eX-
| porters would feel encouraged to operate even
| if prices were satisfactory. Some shippers say
| that the immediate outlook does not warrant
| the payment of over 81 80 = ctl, though OF
course nothing near No. ! standard can be
| bought at this figure Last Saturday 81 10
would have been readily given for an article
| that to-day is considered by buyers to be not
worth much by Zoe p ctl. Holders are not
| prepared for such a sudden descent, and are
generally indisposed to talk business on the re-
duced basis. 1t is believed that an offer of 81 40
| = ctl would bring out more or less stock, but
purchasers are keeping i'll the background, wait
| ing an expected better opportunity, which they
| believe will occur sooner or later. The present
| easy condition OF the market, as compared with
the situation week ago, is attributable TO the
prospect of peaceful settlement Of the troubles
between England and Russia.
| Call Board sales this morning were as follows
Buyer seasOn-100 tons, 81 40ls; 100. 81 40l4:

| 81 5SI4; 20G. 81 $50 r ctl.
BAELEY-An easier tone is noted and IL is
| believed by many dealers that top prices have
been reached, for the present, at lest. 1t must
| be very choice article of feed that Will bring
| 81 % T ctl. Buyers are not numerous, and as
| they do not seem to be IN urgent need OF stock,
their bids of i 30 T. ctl are received more IA
| vorably. Brewing has been held pretty high of
! late, partly because of the advance in feed ard
also in consequence of there being scarcity Of
strictly choice quality. Some OF the less weighty
| kinds of brewing have been sold for feed pur-
poses, prices justified trade OF this character.
| Quotations for brewing are AZ the moment some
what nominal ranging from 81 70 to - 30 { ctl.

OATS-A choice feed article IS in demand at
| full quotations. The comparatively high price
of barley lately brought Out considerable in
| qyiTy for the lower grades Of Oats with which
| the market was somewhat plentituly supplied.
| Under the influence Of a fairly good movement,
there was some little advance III prices, result
| ing, however. in more liberal shipments from
