SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. /. 1852.
There was decided falling off to-day in the
amount of business transacted, owing to the
Jewish population celebrating their holiday
There are no material changes to report in
any branches of trade. On the Produce Ex-
change transactions did not exceed 900 tons
800 Wheat and 600 Barley The Wheat
transfers comprised 100 tons buyer December
at 81 34j5, and 900 tons seller 1892 at from
81 297a TO 81 295s. The dealings in Barley
were 200 buyer December at Gle, 100 Decem-
Der at 9oc and 800 seller 1892 at $3.50 Alb
solutely nothing was done in spot transac-
tions.
Hay and Straw are firmer at advanced quo
tations for choice grades. Bran and Middlings
are held strong.
Eggs are still weaker, which is the only
change noted in Dairy Products.
Vegetables are weak. Potatoes are coming
in in large supply, while the market is but
steady, owing to shipping demand ceasing IN
great measure. River Burbanks are notice
ably weaker.
The Fruit market was but moderately active
this morning. Apples and Grapes are in
abundance and with limited demand are very
weak-in fact the market has ''gone inn for
ity sold for SO.
Poultry cleaned up well and but little stock
will go over to next week.
Local wholesale paper dealers have notified
their constituents that an advance of 20 per
cent. on all paper and stationery has taken
place. This is owing to scarcity of rags for
manufacturing purposes, brought about by
quarantining of foreign vessels bringing i'm
ports.
