SAN FRANCISCO MARKET.
SAErRAHCIsco. April 2stI

~ : -
TO-dayis more or less observed as a holiday,
owing TO so many business men going on the
excursion that will accompany President
Harrison on hiStrip around the bay. Most of
the wholesale houses are expected To close at
noon. The grain men have decided 10 aban-
don trade tor the day, so there is nothing
doing in that line. The Produce Exchange
voted yesterday to have no session to-day,
either regular or informal. Consequently
there are no transactions on which TO base
quotations.

stocked with Asparagus, Rhubarb ana Green
Peas. The supply Of summer Squash is light
aS yet, while the exhibit OF Egg Plant is equally
small. String Beans make much better dis
