COMMERCIAL.
Steady Buying on the Part of Wheat
Shippers at the Bay.
The Barley Market Not in a Satisfac-
tory Condition = Oat Market
Weak and Spiritiess.
So FRANcIsco. aug. 15th.


in spite of the low prices, and offerings are
somewhat liberal in consequence The Barley
market is not in satisfactory condition for the
selling interest. Feed descriptions are in large
supply, while the demand is anything but
active, and prices. therefore, rule easy. For
brewing qualities there is continued fair de-
mand, but prices are not so steady as they
were short time ago. owing to tirmer ocean
freight rates. Both Oregon and Washington
have begun to ship Oats in this direction.
Consignments, so far, have not amounted to
much, even in the aggregate, but stocks on
hand are quite large enough to meet all wants
for a time, and outside uccessions do not help
matters for holders. Market weak and spirit
less.
The demand for vegetables is slow and few
changes are made III prices. Potatoes are
plentiful and the demand is active. Onions
are weaker again under liberal receipts.
In fresh fruits Peaches are over-plentiful
and weak at quotations. Melons are also
lower; Grapes begin TO arrive more freely,
but the demand is still slack. Berries are
coming in lighter Elsewhere there are no
changes to report.
The Butter market is very firm for fancy
creamery. Lower grades are unchanged. Eggs
are nrm for fancy stock. Cheese is in mod
crate demand.
The Poultry market is very quiet. Prices
are steady and the demand is dull. Receipts
are light.
