SAN FRANCISCO MARKET.

quotations are nominal at a range OF 81 37h to

| ity. Millers are not operating to any extent,
and activity from that direction is therefore not
| as brisk as usual. In the sample market no
| business ofmagnitude is expected until the new
harvest season. Nearly all interest in grain
| matters is centered in Call Board transactions
where spectators have liberal field for opera
| tions.
| BARLEY-The sample market is notably dull
| at the moment. The market was specially
| quiet this morning, and lower asking prices
failed to bring buyers to the front. Recent rains
have been of advantage to growing crops, while
the prevailing cool weather is another factor ia
vorable to liberal yield. 1t is hard TO tell
where the market will settle, but lust now il
| looks as If a lower basis of value would be
| reached before the bottom is touched. Brewing
lacks spirit, though the prospects for increased
movement in this description seemed rather
| bright few days ago, end holders were much
encouraged. Circumstances have since changed
the situation. We quote Good to choice Feed,
90@921zc common, S5@S712c; Brewing, 90c@
81 05 a ctl.
OATS-Trade is neither quick nor large Buy
ers are very cautious about the quantity they
teke, apparently fearing to have much stock on
hand. Holders, however, are firm in their ideas,
and 1t is useless to expect concessions. Surprise

production in some localities is assigned as an.
