The conditions in trading We're unal;eged
in the Wheat market to-,at, with slight Inn
provement in tone, owing to 8aaIHance in the
East. The mOS e.acnt there WIS simply s. ocJ-
lalive, and little Deepen lone IS placed on the
advance. The market ia Chicago was very
unsteady. opening rather weak, but closing
with Il gain OF one quarter OF cent The
advance here was Largely nominal in options,
with total of ,, 200 tons sold. Of this 3,4U0
tons was OF May WLett at from 81 % to
81 20, and 500 tons of lie -ember at 81 80.
The TeccIp.s were 1873 c-nttis. The trans
actions in Barley options We're very light,
only amounting 10 200 tons of May at from
s45s cents to $40 cents. The receipts We're

new features of interest. Oranges are steady,
with light demand OUTSIDE of the better

said OF California Lemons. The cholcer brands
of which are in limited supply. y car of
Apples came in to-day from Watsonville.

ceiptS. and stocks increasing. Medium grades
