The Wheat Market at San Francisco
a Little Firmer.
Vegetables Dull-Butter Market Weak
Eggs in Good supply, With
Prices Declining.
sAr FRANcIsco, February q.

The Wheat market opened little firmer on
call this morning, owing to an improvement
in the demand from the shorts, who rather
turned the tables on themselves. There is
nothing outside TO cause any improvement
and the advices from abroad are not of a par
ticularly reassuring character.
The sales OF Wheat amounted to 1 900 tons
of May, at from 81 321s TO 81 32A. The re-
ceipts were 1895 centals.
The Barley market was active, with 1000
tons of May at s35s to s35s cents, and 100
tons of seller '93, new, at So cents. The re-
celpts were / ,66S centals.
The vegetable market was dull again to-day,
with higher prices quoted for Green Peppers,
String Beans and other early vegetables. To-
naRtoes have "a wide range OF prices, governed
entirely by quality. Potatoes are steady, with
moderate supplies. Good Onions sell readily 4.
The fresh Fruit market shows no changes.
Choice Apples are In moderate demand. Or
anges move off owIy, with heavy stocks.
Mexican Lines are now in fair supply, but re-
cent receipts were in poor condition and re-
quired repacking. California Lemons are in
light supply, but fully equal TO the demand.
The Butter market is weaker than ever, with
free arrivals ana comparatively hght de-
n1and. Eggs OF all kinds are weak at quota
tons, with heavy stocks on hand. The Cheese
market is firm for the better qualities.
A carload of Eastern fowl arrived yesterday
and was sold to good advantage. Hens
brought 81 and roosters Sc 90. The receipts
OF California stock are light, with prices
steady. Game came in more plentifully, but
prices were unchanged.
