the time being, under the prey alling weak
ness abroad. The movement in shipping
Wheat is more active than ii has been OF late
and the unengaged tonnage in port is being
gradually reduced The offerings are, how
ever. light, holders still clinging to the hope
that higher prices must eventually prevail
The total transactions on call today agsre-
gated 500 tons. of which only 100 tons was
of May Wheat at 81 343s, and 700 tons May
Barley at from S634 to 81 cents.
BUSINESS in the vegetable market was very
duh TINS morning. Potatoes were in moderate
demand and unchanged at quotations. Choice
Onions sell well. No Asparagus came IN ana
arrivals of other early vegetables were very
light. A few Cucumbers still come in from
santa Clara County, but the sale Is SLOW.
The market for fresh fruits is still limited to
Oranges and Apples The few Strawberries
which came are not worth quoting. FIVE car
loads OF Oranges came IN to-day, DuJ prices
hold steady. California Lemons are scarce
and firmer. Good Newton and Spitzbergen
Apples are in moderate supply.
The market for fancy grades OF Butter stnl
holds moderately nrm, with decidedly weak
tone in all packed grades. Choice ranch Eggs
move OF fairly well at top prices, but store
are easier. There IS no change reported IN
cheese.
The poultry market opened quietly, with
light arrivals OF California stock. one car
load of Eastern has arrived and two more are
due this week. Game came in more plentiful
and prices were easier,
