SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 21st.
The local grain market is dull and interest
ing in the extreme and the brokers are not
disposed to take very cheerful view Of the
situation. The "visible' supply showed a de-
cline OF over zoo, 900 bushels, but this IS a
great deal below what was generally ex-
pected. The sales in all on call to-day were
only 400 tons. OF this amount 1000 tons
were OF May wheat, 900 tons of May at from
81 2S55 10 81 2ss4 and 100 buyer May at
81 80. In barley only 400 tons were sold Of
May al s32se. The receipts OF wheat were
2,612 centals and Of barley 7o6 centals. The
Eastern markets we're weak to-day. The for
eign markets were lower, with very light
business transacted.
The vegetable market opened dull thls
morning with light receipts Of early varie-
ties Prices were steady with the exception
of fasparagus, which ranges lower. Peas are
scarcer and firm. Potatoes are firm. onions
move OF well.
There is a better showing Of activity in the
fruit market and oranges are selling better
than they ere. Apples are slow of sale.
Mexican Lines are stll higher.
There is little new IN the butter market and
prices rule steady under free offerings. Eggs
continue to weaken of. Cheese is arriving
4 lot Of Eastern poultry came on the mar
ket yesterday and prices are easier. Game is
In light demand and prices are weak.
The Produce Exchange will close to-mor-
row, it being a legal holiday.
