Wheat Takes Another Decided Ad-
vance at San Francisco.
Barley Firm With Slight Advance
In Brewing-Oats Little
Better.
Especial Correspondence REcoRn-Ux1ox.l

Even earlier than our report OF yesterday
predicted, Wheat has taken another decided
advance, both for spot transactions and for
future delivery. The feeling at advance is
strong, and it is not improbable that a still
further rise will take place within few days
The long expected reaction seems to be in full
blast. The English market is reported strong
at 33s. cd. per quarter, an advance of Cd
since last report. This occasions strong de-
Inand for ships and local Wheat. The ship
Province, 1,S0o tons register, has been char
tered at 25s., which quotation has since been
refused for three or four large ships. Prices
are advancing, so that before long it will be
profitable for ships to charter. They now ask
26s. 3D.
Choice shipping spot Wheat is quotable at
81 3354 Options were active this morning
and higher. Buyer December was favorite,
$500 tons comprising the transactions. at
from 81 50 to 81 3s54. Two hundred tons,
buyer January, sold at 81 3S3s to 81 SO, and
800 tons of May from 81 427s to 81 As; seller
the year, was not sold, but offerings were
made at 81 341E.
Barley is firm with slight advance for Brew
ing. On 'Change the volume of business
transacted was a little heavier, aggregating
1,400 tons. OF this, l 900 were 2aeember at
from 9o1ac to Gle, 100 tons spot at 66s4, 200
tons Buyer December at 915Ec and and 100
tons Seller '92 at 8654c.
Oats were a little better this morning. Other
Cereals remain unchanged.
Some fancy creamery Butter arrived this
morning and heavy sales were made at 40c,
very gratifying rate. Cheese is firm and
Eggs dull and easy.
Garden Truck was very SLOW Onions and
Potatoes are firm under fair shipping de-
mand.
Fresh Fruits are very slow of sale. Grapes
overburden the market. One house reports
large sales OF Muscats TO Gamers as low as zoe
per box. Bartlett Pears are out of the mar
ket and what few were in sold for 81 so to
81 rs per box. Peaches are very scarce.
Poultry moves fairly well. Two carloads of
Eastern arrived to-day. Some hens sold for
81 so. Game is of so bad quality quotations
are no criterion.
