SAN FRANCISCO MARKET.

SAN FRANCISCO. February 10th.
tLOUR-The Panama steamer yesterday
carried away $500 barrels TO Central
America. We quote Best city extra, 81 $50
4 70; medium, S. 5094 shipping supertine,
81 75@3 20 p Dbl.
WHEAT-The market is in bad shape for SELL
ers, and this particular interest seems at the
moment rather anxious to realize. As a conse-
quence, offerings are too large TO keep values in
steady position. For several days the situation
has been weak and prices have been gradually
lowering. To-day it was no easy task to obtain
81 26}4 2 ell for good No. quality, and sellers
who pressed stock had to be content with 81 %
& ctl. Transfers within the above range were
fairly liberal, probably not less than $50 tons
changing ownership
Cali Board sales at the morning session of the
San Francisco Produce Exchange were as fol-
lows:
Buyer season-S0O tons, 81 271s: $500, st27sSz::

LOCO, 81 10; COO, 81 1873; 100, 81 1871 2 ell
BARLEY-There is very little spot trading in
feed parcels. Buyers are few and offerings are
light, so that activity is or of the question just
at present. The bulk of receipts of late came to
order, being destined for shipment East by rail
or steam via Panama. The San Jose yesterday
carried away 400 ctls in transit TO New York by
way of the Isthmus Movement of this charac-
ter ought to help matters, but there is no ap-
parent Improvement. Local business does not
increase, and values rather soften than other
wise. The best class of feed will not bring over
81 so, while a less desirable article drags at
81 271a . ell In Brewing there is no material
change, though buyers do not purchase as
quickly or as literally as hereto ore, hoping the
situation will shape more favorably for them in
the near future. Brewing parcels generally are
quotable at a range of 81 40G1 50 r ctl
No sales on call this morning.
Afternoon sales were:
Buyer 1SS6-l00 tons, 81 %.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. comes TO hand very
slowly, and full figures are generally realized.
Green Asparagus finds quicker custom than the
white variety, the latter being in greater supply
though at the moment. String Beans are too
high to admit of general consumption Green
Peas sell at irregular prices, there being more
or less stock on the market that is very poor in
quality. Musrooms and Cucumbers also show
a wide range in quotations Tomatoes are fairly
represented, but trade is not active. We

BuTTER-Receipts are large, trade is slow
and stocks are accommodating. The selling in
terest is wholly at a disadvantage, and compe-
tition to dispose of consignments often results
in concessions on present low figures. We
