EXCHANGE REVIEW.
NEW YORK, July LIN the stock market to-
day the demand from the shorts ceased, and
higher figures met with check. The indus
trials came to the front with increasing dull
ness in railroad stocks, and rumors in regard to
sugar with the granting OF an injunction against
the payment OF the dividend, resulted in de-
cline of 21a per cent, which, however, was af-
forwards practically recovered. Among the
specialties there were a few marked advances,
but the majority of changes for the day were
insignificant.

San Francisco Market Review.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 1.-Wheat is very dull,
and owing to a decline in eastern and English
markets, prices are lower. Barley is still in
heavy supply. The market is weak, but un-
changed. Oats and corn very quiet.
There is good demand for vegetables, but
arrivals are to a great extent in poor condition.
Tomatoes coming in early brought good prices.
Potatoes are lower and dull. Cucumbers scarcer,
and in good demand.
Arrivals of summer fruit continue light, and
the market is not overstocked Peaches in good
demand and firm. Apricots largely dealt in at
lower prices. Currants sold well today. Cher
ries dull. Apples and pears in light demand.
Eastern butter and eggs are in heavy supply.
