Fair Movement in the Shipping Line

But Little F1uctuation in Barley
Prices-Liberal Offerings of
Old and New Oats.

sing into the hands of exporters. Prices are
rather low, but growers are meeting the situa-
| tlon by selling at least a portion of their
| holdings. OF course there is room for much
! more activity in trade, and even small ad-
vance in prices would likely create briskey
! business. Buyers quote the market variously
at figures ranging from 81 073a to 81 1OT
ctl for fair to choice shipping Wheat. There
! Is very little desire, however, to sell below
81 10 for really desirable article, and on
this basis probably good deal of Wheat has
! been secured. Prices do not tiuctuate to any
marked extent. Stocks are too large for
| quotations to be very seriously affected at the
present time, The inquiry for feed quality is
/ somewhat irregular, but, taking the week all
| through, perhaps the volume OF business
transacted ought to be satisfactory, consider
Ing the existing trade dullness. For Brewing
! Barley the demand keeps steady without
/ being pressing. Asking prices We're again
/ lower this week, with the view of inviting
| custom, though rs yet without results. Lib.
eral offerings ot both old and new crop.
! Inc trade IN Vegetables was very slow this
morning, with receipts of Corn and Squash in
excess of the demand. Tomatoes came IN
light, and prices We're nrmer. The potato
/ market IS weak ana dull. Onions are steady
The receipts of Fresh Fruits are heavy and
! the market does not clean up well. The Mus
/ cat Grapes arriving do not sell well, owing to
/ bad packing. Some have been packed up for
shipping. Melons are weak and slow OF sale.
/ Peaches are steady.
The Butter market is steady, with firm
| tone Tor lancy grades. Eggs are in heavy sup
/ ply, with weaker feeling In Eastern. Cheese
| is in fair demand.
| The Eastern Poultry which arrived yester-
/ day sold oil TO good advantage. Prices are
| hrmer for California arrivals. Turkeys are
weaker.
In relation to the Hop situation the C0n,-
/ Htercjdi .NetcS says: Purchases at Eastern in
/ terror points are noted on European account
at 2O@2 lc p tb, leading to the bglief that there

| the English crop and the shortage on the Con-
4 tnent The latter Is now pretty well estab-
! Iished, and it only remains to ascertain the
| degree IN order TO determine the possible in
! tluence upon the future of the market. The
California outlook has not changed essen
italy, and there Will probably De good
yield, although the weight as before iuti-
mated, may be light. In the north the pros
! pect Is mixed and hard,tO decipher, owing To
| the conflicting nature OF reports. The spot
market IS strong, but inactive under scarcity,
while trading on future account is hampered
by the enhanced rates demanded by growers"
