SAN FRANCISCO, october 9th.
There is O tamepess about the situation IN
Wheat that is not encouraging for the inn
mediate future. Prices keep low. and Offer
ings are fairly free, but exporters are not in
cined to purchase much ahead of current
wants. Considerable Wheat has already been
shipped this season, but much greater guam
tity will have to go forward TO foreign coun-
tries before any very positive inroad is made
on stocks. Growers have met the situation
so far with promptitude, and such action has
aided largely in giving activity TO grain mat
ters. There is nothing specially interesting in
the Barley market. Trade is OF moderate pro-
portions only. while values keep pretty nearly
stationary. Prices of Oats were lowered early
in the week on account of liberal stocks.
Since then receipts have kept up we'll, and
the situation is still favorable TO buyers.
There was nothing new In the Vegetable
market this morning. Receipts were moder-
ate, with prices weak. Potatoes OF all kinds
are steady. onions are unchanged. Corn Is
In very light supply.
In Fresh Fruits the market is firmer for
Peaches and Plums. Apples bring very low
prices. Grapes arrive in good condition, with
prices easier. Dried Fruit is active and firm.
The lower grades of Butter are selling better
on the advance in creamery and dairy. Eggs
are firm and steady Choice Cheese is doing
better.
