SAN FRANCISCO. October goth.
FLOU 2-There is good motion to the market,
the demand being of general character, while
steadiness in value is feature of the situation
We quote: Net cash price for Family Extras.

pertipe, So 35C03 60.
WHEAT-Greater activity would likely pre-
vail in grain circles were it not that desirable
offerings are of limited proportions Holders
consider the outlook as favorable, and are not
anxious to part with stock while they believe
there is prospect of obtaining better prices at no
distautd day There is good inquiry for Wheat OF
standard grade on shipping account and BUYERS
will class as : o. grade Liberal Quantities
would probably be taken at this figure If offered.
BARLEY-Feed descriptions have changed
for the better within a few days, and slight
advance in values has been established, al
though the situation is not of buOyant char
acter. Round lots of feed have changed hands
on basis of S5c 2 ctl, which can now be ac
cepted as the ruling rate, being PIC q ctl above
the figures of week ago. There is no business
in Chevalier, simply because all standard stock
has passed from first hands, and there is no de-
mand for any lower grade. In Brewing Barley
movement is well maintained under fairly lib
eral shipping orders We quote prices No. l

in favor of the selling interest Receipts are less
excessive, while trade is active and continuous
gradually reducing stocks and getting the mar

matter of time only. We quote prices: Surprise
