Weaker Feeling in the Wheat Market
at San Francisco.
Vegetable Market Dull-Firm Tone
in California Navel
Oranges
SAy FRAyCrsco. Februarv 7tb.

Inc Wneat market broke back on call TINS
morning on unfavorable advices from the
East and abroad. The Eastern decline is said
to be due TO the weather reports, although the
news from the North of floods working havoc
with the crop is rather more bullish than
otherwise. Leading operators here are pretty
well satisfied with the prospects in this state,
which so far are very satisfactory. The trans
actions on call aggregated 2,4oo tons, all OF
which were May, at prices ranging nom
81 311s to 81 315s. The Barley market was
firmer under better demand. There is a
good deal of shipping going on at present, es-
pecally for brewing. The transfers were 100
tons of May at S3@s cents. The spot market
in Wheat is steady, with little grain coming
In. The Eastern and foreign markets were
weak and lower
There are few changes in Poultry and the
supply is light from all quarters, with a fair
demand. Game comes in light but sufficient
TO meet the demand. With the exception of
Mallard Ducks, prices were lower.
The Butter market is weak, with heavy
supplies on hand. Eggs are still further re
duced in price and sales OF store were made
as low to-day as twenty-five cents, with twenty
nVe cents top for choice ranch. Good new
Cheese Is firmly held.
The Vegetable market is dull with dull ar
rivals of all early varieties, except Asparagus,
which came IN heavier. The Potato market
is doing fairly well and prices are well MAIN
tanned. Choice Onions are in good demand.
There is u firmer tone in California Navel
Oranges. owing to the determination upon the
part OF growers to hold back shipments until
the demand picks up. Choice Apples are
fairly active with moderate supplies. There
Is little sale, however, Tor common stock.
California fancy Lemons are weak. Mexican
Lines are firmly held. The balance of the
marAet is steady.
