Weak Tone in Wheat Prices at San
Francisco.
Demand for Feed Barley Slow, While
Prices Are Unsteady and
Weak.

Inc w nedl hcb slightly IGtiNlCl ILLS
morning the general feeling not being as
steady as it was yesterday. Offerings are
moderate, but the absence of buyers causes
weak tone in prices. The demand for feed
Barley is slow, while prices are unsteady and
weak. For Brewing descriptions there con-
tinues TO be a fair inquiry for export, though
not as positive as it was short while ago.
Favorable crop prospects are having some in
fiuence on the situation. The better grades of
Oats are steady in price under fair demand.
Common stock comes in competition with
Barley. and values for such product are there
fore not of firm character.
The Vegetable market is fairly active Just
now, and receipts are all that is necessary to
supply the demand. Asparagus was little
firmer to-day, with an easier tone in the Po-
tato market.
A few more Strawberries came in to-day of
fair quality. There is nothing new in fresh
Fruits OF any kind. Apples are scarce
Lines are shade lower. Oranges meet with
slow sale and prices are weak.
The Butter market is in very poor shape for
trading, with values favoring buyers ON all
grades. Receipts are still heavier than the
demand warrants. Eggs are no ding their
own for all kinds, under a fair demand
Game is quiet at quotations.
There are few changes in Poultry, and prices
are firm for young stock. Turkeys are selling
better. The only demand in the way of Game
is for Hare and Rabbits.
Produce Market.
