SAN FRANCISCO. March 10th.
Business in Wheat could hardly be duler
than it IS just at the present time Nobody
wants to buy, low Irices not being any temp
tation. Shippers are almost entirely out of
the market, and the outlook is not favorable
for any pressing demand on export account
for some time 10 come. Holders do not seem
10 be particularly worried about the situation,
Tor offerings are very slim. Under existing
conditions, the market is not quotable over
81 2213 g ctl for standard shipping Wheat.
IN TACT it is doubtful il a choice sample would
hnd prompt sale at 81 2314. Milling grades
are fairly steady, because holders are some
what tenacious and insist on fun figures.
Trade in Barley moves along in the same old
groove. There is very slow movement in
feed descriptions, as buyers still pursue q
hand-to-mouth policy. II looked once this
week as If there were likely to be change
for the better, but the indications were de-
lusive and the expected movement dad not
InaterialZe. There is continued Steady trade
III Brewing Barley, which is yet taken for eX-
port purposes. Prices for this quality show q
little more strength. Prices OF White descrip-
lions Of Cats have not changed in a week.
Trade Is light and low, partaking wholly of
JobOing character. Black Oats have been
quiet and almost inactive for quite long
while, but this week some inquiry has devel-
oped and the article is assuming more promt-
nence. with EIles at advanced figures.
In fresh fruits there We're no new arrivals.
Oranges were weak, with heavy supplies on
hand There is little doing in Apples. and
only tfe choicest varieties are in demand.
The market is well cleaned up OF California
Lines. Mexican Lines are easy. California
Lemons are firm. Bananas are in liberal sup
ply from the Hawaiian Islands, while Pine
apples are well represented. Some Isabella
Grapes came up from Honolulu this week.
The vegetable market is steady, with light
trading. Potatoes were tirmer to-day. Choice
Onions hold TO good advantage. Prices else
where were steady.
The arrivals OF California Poultry are light
and the market cleans up well, with prices
1irm. In Game only few Hare came in to-day
The fancy grades of Butter are active and
firm at quotations, with little inquiry Tor
other qualities. Eggs OF all kinds are dull
and weak. Cheese is in liberal supply.
