FLOUR-The market was Irregular and
weak. There is heavier exporting at the
lower prices.
WHEAT-The bears are still hammering at
the market, taking advantage of the timidity
of the bulls. Offerings are still light. About
all that is offered appears to be small parcels.
1t is claimed that in the country higher bids
are made than in this city. We quote
the market as follows: For Port Costa
or alongside delivery the market is quoted
as follows: shipping, 81 271a91 80 for fair to
good; choice to gilt-edged, 81 31A@1 30;
milling, 81 3&1z@l 33A for fair to good;
81 36@1 371a for choice to gilt-edged. For old
milling buyers bid 212c higher than for new.
BARLEI-The market for dark and poor
is in about as bad condition as IL usually gets.

down OF all wharf parcels, which have to be
moved to save expenses. The market is
quoted as follows: Feed, poor, 7713dSOc; fair
to good, S1A9S5c; choice to extra choice,
S7%995c Brewing, 95cG$1 021a

choice; 81 so for gilt-edged; Surprise, 81 55.
