SAN FRANCISCO MARKET.
SAN FRANCISCO. October 81

FLOUG-There is good motion to the market
the demand being of general character, while
steadiness i'll value is feature of the situation
We quote: Net cash price for Family Extras,
S4 S0n5 p Dbl: Bakers Extras, 81 1904 IS; Su-
pertpe, So 35G3 co.
WHEAr-Greater activity would likely pre-
vail III grain circles were it not that desirable
offerings are of limited proportions. Holders
consider the outlook favorable, and are not
anxious to part with stock while they believe
there is prospect of obtaining better prices at 70
distant day. There is good inquiry for Wheat of
standard grade on shipping account, and buyers
| are willing to pay 81 621a 8 ctl for stock that
will class as No. grade. Liberal quantities
would probably be taken at this figure ii 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
acer. Round lots of feed have changed hands
on basis of soc p ctl, which can now be ac-
cepted as the ruling rate being 21%c q ell above
the figures of week ago. There is no business
in Chevaher, simply because all standard stock
has passed from first hand, 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 80
Feed, soc; common grades, 771S@S0c: Brewing
95@9719c for fair TO good, and Si@1 02I5 for
choice.
OATS-The situation is shaping a trife more
in favor of the selling interest. Receipts are less
excessive, while trade Is active and continuous,
gradually reducing stocks and getting the mar
ket into better shape generally. Values have
not yet appreciated to any extent but dealers
are satisfied with the more encouraging outlook,
and look upon an advance in quotations as a
matter of time only. We quote prices: Surprise
81 20Gl p milling, 81 20dl 22%; choice feed
81 15tal H.; No, l. 81 l21a; lower grades 5lt1
%; Black, Tor seed, 81 2Ole1 G5 Gray, 81 05@
CORN-Holdcrs of Yellow are about tired of
the inactivity of the market Prices have been
lowered time and again with a view to create
custom, but no tangible results have followed.

HAY-Much of the Hay now in the country is
being stored, aud shipments in future will be

FRUIT-Watermelons have disappeared for
the season. Catalogues are largely neglected,
only choice ripe lots finding custom. Berries
sell at wide range, owing 10 difference in quail
ity. Table Grapes are doing better than a week
ago. Receipts are liberal and shipments are
pected to continue for some time. Apples OF
choice character are in quick demand at top
rates The market is crowded with poor offer
ingS, which drag at low figures box of strictly
prime pears is hard to find. Mexican Oranges
are a feature at the moment being in good sup
ply and of choice quality. We quote prices

DRIED FRUIT-Some little INQUIRY is de-
veloping for Prunes, hut it does not hel p prices
which are weak. Fair trade is also reported in
Peaches at easy figures. Apricots are not heavily
represented and: quotations arewen sustained.

in the near future. Raisins are. firm under

less free of late and stocks are not so large as q
week ago. Prices have not improved, however
Dealers are willingto work down Accommodations |
without attempting to advance quotations. |
Eastern Butter is an important factor in regu-
lating values Receipts are liberal and the |
quelty good, while asking prices are below the
