WHEAT-There is fair export movement in
progress, though 1t does not occasion what
might be termed brisk trading in the sample
market. Offerings have been little more free
of late. but the views of sellers are somewhat in
advance of those of buyers, and sales are not
negotiated with positive quickness, At 81 3715

but most holders ask 81 49, and are not disposed
to entertain any lower offer. Round sales have
been made in warehouse at Port Costa at an
equivalent of 81 $3.50 here.

BUTTER-t the moment It does not look as
if low prices would soon prevail There is got
enough fresh Eutter coming forward to meet
daily needs, and supplies have to be parcelIes
out in as near equitable proportions as possible
TO regular buyers. Eastern eonsigRments have
been locked up in the freight blockade, though
an arrival is said TO have reached the depot here
to-day. From 45c TO 471zc {. h is the range at
which California Butter. az all good in quality,
is distributed to the trade.

Eastern, 144tl6c 2 h.
EGGS-ArTivais Of California show less differ
ence in quality, and the margin in prices is
therefore not 50 wide. Many Eastern consjgr-
ments have come u hand of late in frozen con
dition. Quo;able at 3l4a3Se 2 dozen for Califcr-
mia. and 25d 2714c for Eastern.
