SAN FRANCISCO. May 10th.
FLOUR-Prices are higher than a week
ago. Net cash price Tor California: Ex-
tras "a 2564 80 p Dbl Z; Superfne. So 9O@3 rs.
WHEAT-Ihere is no spot trading of magni-
tude. Call Board operations have carried prices
beyond the shipping limit, and it is only from
the speculative interest that custom can be ex-
pected Tor the filling Of contracts. For this pur-
pose alone. standard Wheat is worth in lots of
not less than 100 tons, 81 421aGp1 45 q ctl while
parcels of more desirable character, for the bet
ter class of milling custom, range from 81 Az
to 81 so q ctl.
BARLEY-Good crop weather has given the
market weaker tone. Stocks in the city are
fairly large, while arrivals are constant and lib
eral; business is notably quiet there being but
few buyers, and these are not inclined to take
any more than warranted by positive necessi-
ties. we quote: Good 10 choice, Feed, 500
Soc: common, soc; Brewing, 90c@Sl p ctl.
OATS-ReceiptS from Oregon do not appear
to be all over. To-day some 1900 bags came
from that direction. Holders have handled the
market well, keeping values in position at times
when other articles OF feed were being pressed
at reduced rates. The outlook at the moment
however, is less favorable to sellers, and Gus
toners for round lots can obtain more accom-
modating terms than week ago. All grades
except Surprise and Milling, have a softer
tone We quote prices as follows: Surprise.

bUTTER-There is a firm tone to the market
and prices show good strength. The future de-
ponds largely on arrivals. If there be no ma
terisl increase in receipts. the situation viii
continue favorable to sellers. Should packing
