SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. Z, 1892.
With everybody interested more or less in
politics the markets are neglected and very
quiet.
The Wheat market is essentially the same
as last saturday, except that options are a
trihe higher-2s Of cent. But at this slight
advance trading is remarkably light. only
100 tons were sold this morning, OF Buyer
May at 81 3s15. In the spot market offerings
are light and irmer feeling maintains.
Barley was correspondingly inactlye, 100
tons being the limit of transactions-Buyer
December at 921a cents. The spot -ket is
firm.
Other Cereals, ETC., are inactive at quota
Gons
The inquiry for Butter is very light. Cheese
is firmly held, especially fancy mild. Eggs
are strong and scarce at quotations.
Poultry WIS decidedly weaker to-day.
Stocks are heavy and call light. Turkeys
fail to bring higher than 15c a pound, while
sales have been made as low as 12c. Hens are
about the only Poultry which holds up WELL
which is generally the case when other kinds
are weak.
Quail receipts were heavy to-day, which oc-
casioned drop OF 121zc 2 dozen. Choice
Game of other kinds is readily taken at
Justice quotations.
Choice Pears are scarce, while common are
N abundant supply. Apples clean up well.
Grapes arrive in poor quality, showing effects
of rains and fogs. Wine Grapes move slowly.
Berries soft and mushy, supply the market.
Otherwise the market is dull at the prices
given.
