WHEAT-There is scarcely any activity to the
situation. shippers have been poor buyers o.
late, and the reported decline of slxpence al
Liverpool to-day is not likely to encourage lib
eral purchasing in local circles. On Change
this morning, sampling was light, and few ex
porters bid as high as 81 20 p ctl for Standard
shipping quality. Still it was the general belief
thar an offering of really choice shipping Wheat

HOPS-Quotable at 15@17c p ID. The circular
of J. P. Thomas, says: The absence of East
ern orders makes it necessary to offer Hops at
lower prices, and an occasional order can be
obtained at the quotations above given. The de-
mand is, however, very slight, and as Eastern
brewers and dealers are now fully supplied for
the time being, there will likely be very little
demand until after January list. The New York
and London markets continue to show dull de.
clining tendencies, and it is only an occasional
choice lot of Hops that finds sale"

DRIED FRUlT-Trade has been quiet for
week. Apricots are scarce and prices are
against buyers Peaches do not move freely,
though quotations remain steady. Custom is
for Prunes is notably light, while the demand
for Apples is anything but urgent. The Raisin
market is thus summed up by the Grocer and
Country Merchant: The demand for Raisins
during the last twenty days has been exceed
ingly good, and the stock has gone rapidly into
the hands ef Eastern buyers. Packing is about
over Fresno packers have practically closed
fer the season. The northern packers closed
seaae days since sales have been so free for
Eastward that coast requirements
haze really been overlooked, and stocks here
are not in excess of local needs. Low grade
stock and loose Muscatels are obtasnable, but
Lon60ns of first quality are extremely scarce.

that Ia igher prices will Iule before the holiday
