Export Trade in Wheat Quiet and
Slow, offerings Being Light.
Firmer Feeling in the Barley Market
Fresh Fruits in Good
Supply.
SAX FRANCIsco. Nav 12th.

81 2S54 to 81 80 q ctl with possibly 81 3114
for something choice, but they are not able TO
get much, ii any, grain at this range. AS the
situation at Liverpool will not warrant the
payment of any higher figure, export trade is
necessarily quiet and slow. At the same
time there is a little boom in Wheat contracts
in the Call Board, which causes holders of
actual Wheat to entertain advanced ideas as
to values. Hence the absence of large offer
ings. The Barley market has had sort of
seesaw motion this week, one day going up
and the next day going down. 1t is true the
fluctuations have not been very wide, and
the sample situation has been free of excite
ment. But Call Board operations have been
somewhat lively, imparting better tone to
futures and causing firmer feeling in regular
business channels.
In referring to the Hop market the C0nlme,-
cidt NelCS says: "rhe recent purchase OF about
800 bales of choice Sonomas at something
like 1Sc q h just about cleans up stocks OF
that quality and leaves the market 10 lower
grades, tor which there is moderate inquiry
at relatively low prices. SO lar as this market
is concerned, therefore, it is in good shape TO
receive the new crop which promises to be
abundant and OF excellent quality. Growers
are deVoting much thought, time and labor to
the proper cultivation and care OF the plant,
with the consequence that California Varie-
ties are steadily growing in favor with the
consumers, they having obtained a secure
footing in Australia to the exclusion of other
descriptions. Should this intelligent plan OF |
action be maintained and encouraged, the
time Will come when there will be no such
thing as lack OF u market for California
growths. Eastern markets are quoted quiet
but firm and in the northern States OF this
coast dullneSs is the rule, with too much rain
in Oregon and the announcement of a firm
determination to finally destroy the pest in
Washington"
The Vegetable market opened steady to-day
with fair demand. Peas alone declined, the
range being from 45c to 81 per sack, with
Gamers buying heavily.
The Fresh Fruit market is well supplied
now with Strawberries and Cherries. Goose
berries came in to the extent of 27 bxs and 3
SKIS There Is little doing in citrus fruits.
The Butter market is tirmer and sales are
made above quotations. Cheese is weak. Eggs
are quiet, with prices steady.
There were no changes III the prices of
Poultry this morning. The receipts are light,
