SAN Francisco, Sept. 22d.
The Wheat market is dull and heavy. OF
ferings are not particularly heavy. and they
are amply sufficient to satisfy all immediate
wants. Exporters are not inclined 10 pay
over 81 90 ? ctI for the best quality OF ship
ping Wheat, and this quotation can be ac-
cepted as the top of the market though some
holders of really choice parcels are not dls-
posed to sell under 81 o6A 2 ctl. There IS
not much movement in milling Wheat, which
is quotable at 81 O71l@1 10. Trade IN feed
descriptions of Barley drags along slowly,
while the inquiry for brewing Barley is OF less
active character. Stocks are of liberal pro-
portions, and the outlook is not favorable for
any immediate improvement in values QUO
tations in Oats are steady. and dealers do
not look for any decline on current figures.
Trade is fair, with improving prospects.
Speaking of Hops the Commercial Ne1os
says: --latest returns from the Hop districts
indicate that picking is practically over, and
that, so far at least as this State is concerned,
the yield is very large and the quality excel
lent. In fact, good judges say that in the last
particular growers have made wonderful
progress. Good judgment and care have been
displayed in picking and curing, and the re-
suit is product OF high quality, which Will
give California Hops a standing in the worlds
markets that must be Of great financial ad-
vantage TO the producer. Sales in the interior
are nOteu at 1oc, ana Slnall iOtS nave cuduSSu
hands locally at gle, but the latter is an ex-
ceptiOnal figure. News from New York 1ndi-
Gates a shrinkage of about 10 per cent. IN the
yield compared with that OF last year. There
j no further Information from abroad, but
enough is known to inspire holders with con-
fldence in the future of the market"
The Vegetable market was unchanged this
morning. with business dull, prices weak and
supplies heavy. Green Peas and String Beans
are lower. Onions are very firm. Potatoes
are steady, with the exception OF Sweets,
,Fs.T, ,r-srr. .flra hi
Receipts of all kinds OF Fresh Fruits con-
tinue liberal. The demand is slow in all lines.
a Apples are very dun. Grapes sell as rule
for what they viii bring. Bartlett Pears are
q little firmer.
The Butter market is very firm and stocks
are moderate. Eggs come in literally but
prices hold steady. Cheese is weak.
The Poultry market IS dull. The Eastern
arrivals did not sell well, being poor. Cali
tornia receipts are light.
