SAN Francisco Market Review.

BAN FRANCISCO. June 13.-The produce mar
kets were quiet today, the exchange having ad-
journed and the members being mostly away on
the merchants picnic, there are consequently
no changes in quotations of grain, etc.
Shipments of fruit arrived rather late this
morning, and sales suffered in consequence.
Receipts of strawberries are up to the average,
and the demand is better. Currants are coming
in light, and prices are firm. Apples and pears
are in light demand, and clean up slowly. Ap-
ricots more plentiful at quotations. Peaches
are arriving in quantity. and of fair quality.
The vegetable market was rather dull this
morning. Potatoes were firm at quotations,
with good supplies coming in. Onions lightly
dealt in Beans continue to be a drug in the
market, and asparagus is slow Of sale. Toma-
toes were in heavy supply this morning.
In dairy produce there was no change today.
In the matter OF prices eggs continue weak for
both California and eastern. Butter remains
steady, with quiet inquiry.

displayed more activity and more strength dur
ing the two hours of business than at any pre-
vious time during the week, and prices at the
close were generally at the highest points since
the close OF last week The sentiment that the
drain on the gold resources of the country has
ended at least for the present, has created a
more confident feeling in speculative circles
and efforts to cover shorts this morning, with n
little new buying, made the liveliestand strong
est market for some time. The expectation that
the bank statement would show material In
crease in the surplus reserve was not dIsap
pointed. Final changes show gain all along
the line of large fractions, and Jersey Central
and Union Pacific are up 1ls per cent each, and
Pacific Mail per cent
