Review Of the San Francisco Market
the Past Week.
Increased Volume of Trade-Satisfac-
tory Values Realized. Except for
Grain, Which is Lower.
Especial Correspondence REcoRD-UN1ox.

The past week has experienced an increased
volume of trade in general, and, aside from
the Grain markets, values realized have been
satisfactory.
Wheat has declined, both for options and
spot Wheat and at this writing the future of
the market cannot be prognosticated. the feel
ing being weak and the market unstable.
While authentic reports as to the amount OF
Wheat in the State on the 1st inst. show a
smaller surplus than anticipated, no strength
was given to the market thereby, and the ten
dency seems downward rather than Tor the
benefit of the producer. only 700 tons OF
Wheat changed hands on Call this morning.
of which 600 tons were May at 81 31as, and
100 tons Buyer December at 81 20. The spot
market is steady at the quotations, with light
trading.
Barley sympathized with Wheat, and con-
sequently is lower. Sales at lower quotations
have been heavy. To-day 1900 tons were
sold on Change, the bulk of which were Jan
uary at from o31zc to 8414c; 600 tons of May
at from S755c 10 SS14c; 200 tons Buyer De-
cember at from s35ac to $3.50, and 200 tons
December at from S212c to $3.50. The spot
market Is steady, with choice feed in good de-
mand
Oats and Corn have not 1uctuated during
the period under review, and the market has
been lifeess and devoid of interest.
Rye is lower and weak.
Bran, Middlings and Hay are unchanged.
Receipts have been light, and the feeling in
consequence is slightly better.
The Hop market presents no new condi-
tions. At the quotations buyers are indis-
posed to purchase, and holders unwilling to
make conc SESSIONS, so the market is dull
Fancy Creamery Butter continues firm un-
der light arrivals. Other grades are steady.
Cheese is in fair inquiry. Large stocks of
hax lot tad he rLrat 10
weak.
Poultry quotations are lower to-day, brought
about by heavy arrivals of Eastern stock and
free shipments OF California Poultry.
Game sells higher and the market is well
cleaned up.
Vegetables move slowly.
onions are considerably lower, receipts be
ing very heavy and demand poor. The Potato
market is governed likewise, and prices are
lower all around.
Green Fruits arrive in scanty supply and in
poor condition. Grapes coming to the market
sell at rom so cents to 81 20 per box.
Choice Apples and fine Pears are in active de-
mand. California Lemons are scarce and
higher. Oranges, mostly green, are in heavy
supply. The Dried Fruit market is steady,
with fair activity. Raisins are moving well,
also Nuts.
Provisions are stiff. Fresh Meats are about
the same and steady.
No particular changes are noted in staples.
