SAX FRANCISCO. Sept. 25th.

SAN Francisco, Sept. 25th.
The down-grade movement in Wheat prices
stiIl continues Business opened very quietly
this morning, with lower bidding prices. The
movement in Feed Barley is slow and light in
volume Receipts of Oats were large to-day,
over 10000 ctls coming from oregon.
The Vegetable market opened with business
o,,iet and the demand dull in face of heavy.
receipts. Potatoes and Onions are steady
Beans are very weak. Corn, if good, brings
higher prices.
The demand for Fresh Fruits is light
GRAPES are very weak. Canteloupes are
lower, with heavy stocks on hand. Peaches,
Plums and Apples move off slowly.
In the market for dairy produce Butter
holds firm at advanced rates. Eggs are
higher, with a scarcity of finer grade OF ranch
Cheese continues easy.
The Poultry market is very quiet, with
moderate demand for hens but a difficulty in
making sales; receipts are in excess of the de-
mand.
