The Wheat Movement Not of Very
Large Proportions,
New Crop of Barley Turning Out
FIneIy-But Little Strength
in Dat Values.

BAN FRANCISCO, july 2lSt.
Movement in wheat is not of large propor-
tions, but there is enough doing in the way OF
sales to keep the market moderately active.
Low ruling prices are the cause of many
growers holding back, and offerings are there
fore less liberal than they might be other
wise. At the same time, the situation at for
eign distributing centers win not admit of the
payment of higher figures in local circles.
Shippers are willing to buy at current quota
tions and all parcels of desirable character
that are submitted at once find ready sale
The new crop of Barley is said to be turning
out finely, being unusually heavy. Trade at
the moment is not brisk, but the outlook is
apparently encouraging. 1t seems to be gen
orally conceded that export operations prom
Use to be OF considerable magnitude, and this
circumstance ought to inspire much conf

are said TO be making on shipping account
which must in due season have favorable in
1luence on the situation. New York ana Iiy-
erpool will doubtless be the two directions
which most of the Barley exported will take
though il is not improbable that shipments
of more or less extent will be made to Europe
Supplies are liberal and every avenue for the
disposal of stock will be acceptable. Under
existing conditions, the Dat market cannot be
expected to show much strength in values
The demand is poor and slow, while offerings
are somewhat liberal. Asking prices were re-

change for the better in the not distant
future.
Referring to the Hop situation the CONNER
cjdL Neics says: "Reports from the interior
indicate the quality of the new crop will be
good but the burr is said to be smaller than
usual. and ii is thought the weight will be less
deficient. Growers are not very responsive
to offers to contract, and it is not likely that

move Off slowly. Green Corn is in fair de-
mand.
The movement in Fresh Fruits this morning
very slow. supplies of all kinds are
ample for the demand. Fresno Grapes are
now expected any day. Watermelons and
Catalogues are in good supply, but the de-
mand is rather quiet.
Butter is steady, with fair demand for the
better grades. Medium stock moves off slowly.
Eggs are weak, with heavy supplies on hand.
No change is reported on Cheese.
