Wheat Market Weak, Both in Option
and Spot.
No Change in the Vegetable Markets
Most Varieties Coming In of
Inferior Quality.
So FrANc1sco. Februarv %

The wheat market was weak again this
morning both in option and spot, with the
Eastern markets steady, closing shade low
er. The visible supply shows a decrease of
764 900 bushels, but part of this is accounted
for by the wheat lost during the recent st.
LOUIS fire. 1t is believed here that the de-
crease will continue from this on, as the re-
ceipts are selling lighter all the time. The
transactions on call amounted to 1000 tons
of May wheat at from 81 81 to 81 3114 and
1000 tons of May barley at from S2% to
S254 cents. The receipts OF wheat were 1885,
74o centals and barley 4, ,139 centals.
The vegetable market shows no change,
with very light receipts of early vegetables.
Peas are higher than they were. Good pota-
toes are in demand. A heavy shipment came
in from oregon. onions are nrmer again,
much of the stock coming in very poor.
The Fresh Fruit market is unusually quiet,
choice Apples alone moving on 10 advantage.
Oranges are in heavy supply, with prices easy
at quotations. There were a few Strawberries
still on the market, but there is no sale for
them. California Lemons are steady. Mexican
Lines hold firm.
The Butter market remains weak with
large stocks on hand. A little relief is OBJ
tained from shipments and more of this trade
will likely be done If matters continue as they
are. The Egg market is very dull and prices
are weak. Cheese is unchanged.
The Poultry market holds up well at quota
tons with moderate receipts of home stock.
More Eastern stock is expected. The Game
