The Wheat Market Continues Quiet at
San Francisco.
But Moderate Inquiry for Barley-Oats
Are Held at Full Figures
Butter Weak.
SAN FRANCISCO, May 2d.

into situation of quietness. II does not look
as II there would be any activity of conse-
quence this month, and possibly not until
after the new harvest year is entered. Crop
prospects are still considered favorable, as a
rule, and liberal yield is expected with conf
dence. Barley prices do not nuctuate to any
extent. There is but moderate inquiry for
feed, and such trade is promptly met, the
offerings being in excess of immediate re-
Quirements. At the same time, il is not easy
10 obtain concessions in asking rates. The
demand for brewing is not so pronounced as
1t was earlier in the season, but prices show
frmness, as stocks are not of heavy proper
tiOns, and to this fact can be ascribed the
healthy feeling that exists. Choice Oats,
either stable or milling, are in limited supply
ana held at full figures. With ordinary
qualities the market is pretty well furnished,
and prices for such descriptions show no
special strength.
The Vegetable market shows few changes.
with heavier receipts and prospect for more
arrlN ais from the East, the Potato market Is
easier onions are still strong at quotations.
Choice Cucumbers sold higher to-day.
The receipts of Strawberries were much
larger to-day, and prices were lower for all
varieties. In other varieties of Fresh Fruit
the prices were steady, with the demand only
Iair. Arrivals this morning included six
boxes of Almonds.
The demand for medium grades of Butter is
quiet and prices are weak, with a firmer fell
ing in creamery. and the better grades. Eggs
are unchanged, with supplies moderate
