SAN FRANCISCO, Oct ID, 1892.
To-day was very dull in all the local mar
kets, and no new features can be advanced.
Trading on the floor of the Produce Exchange
was limited and confined to Wheat, of which
1000 tons were sold, comprising 500 tons
buyer December, which opened at 81 81 and
closed at 81 365s: 200 tons of buyer May, at
from 81 42@1 421I. The Eastern markets are
steady and the English firm, which latter con-
dition causes freights to be stiff at yesterdays
quotations. The ship Scottish Loche, $500
tons register, was fixed to-day at 26s Sd for
orders, or IS cd less direct. The spot market
for Wheat is firm, but inactive.
Barley was not called for at all on Change,
and in the spot market was just about steady.
Choice grades of Butter are much easier,
with slight change In prices.
Although receipts of Potatoes and Onions
were large to-day, the demand was very good,
and the market cleaned up well.
Fresh Fruits were very inactive. Grapes
are extremely sluggish. Melons are not at all
inviting, being green and flavorless. Good
Apples sell better.
Poultry is doing WELL Game declined lit
tie to-day, under large receipts. The quality
is fair.
