PRODUCE MARKET.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 6, 1892.
! WHEAT-No particular feature of interest
in the market to-day. Foreign adyices indi-
cate firm tone and more disposition TO operate
/ at The current values. Chicago and New York
were materially weaker the former market
| dropped 179c per bushel for May Wheat and
| 112c for July Wheat and the New York mar
ket was about 1c lower on each option. These
| reports in connection with the continued ia
vorable weather reports in our own State,
caused decline of &c to 34c per 100 in OPP
tions in our market. Seller the year Wheat
! opened at 81 414 and closed at 81 Al,
with sales of 400 tons, while buyer the sea-
| son Wheat sold at 81 1895 to 81 AZ, decline
| OF cent from yesterday. In the sample
market there was no particular change. A
continued limited demand for No. l shipping
at 81 471a TO 81 4S34, with an occasional par
eel favorably located at 81 so, choice milling
bringing 81 52I to 81 80. Receipts at this
point for the day were 551 ctls. More en-
couraging accounts from the lower San Joa-
quin Valley continue to come in since the
copious rains of the past few days, but what
dennite increase of the coming crop it will
make is still very probicmatical.
