SAN FRANCISCO MARKET.


FLoUR-Is fairly active. We quote Best
city extra, 81 2564 So; medium, S. SCOT; ship
ping superfne 81 75@g5 50 2 Dbl.
WHEAT-The English market has been look
ing better for the last day So and if it should
continue 10 improve we may expect some move
ment in local circles. Just at present, however,
there is no business worthy of mention. Ship
pers are giving some little attention to samples,
and occasionally make small purchases within
q range of 81 40GI 1917 p ctl, but beyond these
figures they are not willing to go, even for lots
that might be classed as fancy. Millers, of
course, pay higher figures for selections.
Call Board sales at the morning session of the
San Francisco Produce Exchange were as fol-
lows:
Buyer season-100 tons, 81 20; 100, 81 693I; 500.
BUYER $500 TONS 81 GO; ], 200, 81 59Is p ctl.
BARLEY-Receipts OF new crop rather I'M
settle matters. Samples OF new are becoming
more free and there would likely be positive
efforts to force sales if not for the fear that such
action would impart a too weak feeling to the
situation Sales OF pew have been negotiated
not in a condition to absorb any heavy quantity
at this figure. On Change this morning a
really good parcel was offered at 81 2212 in order
to invite business but 81 % was the best bid OBJ
tanned. Old qualities are not quite so steady,
though holders cling to the former asking price
of 81 275a 2 ell. Possibly quick custom could
be found at 81 %. In Brewing descriptions there
is no special change. Business in this line is
limited to local trade, and buyers do not seem
anxious TO lay in much stock in advance of I'M
mediate requirements. The Brewing range is
from 81 30 to 81 4219 2 ctl.

FRUIT-The market is flooded with Peaches
and buyers can about name their own prices.
Berries drag badly, though asking rates have
been further lowered. Pllnms almost gobegging
for custom. Apples are abundant and slow of
sale. Grapes as yet make a poor showing Figs
continue in free supply and cheap in value.

quickly at top figures. ApTicots are plentiful.
