Trade in Produce at San Francisco
Greatly Depressed.
Wheat Continues Dull, the Demand
Being of Small Proportions-Dairy
Products Selling weiI.

Yesterdays traffic in the local Produce and
Merchandise markets was OF very small pro-
portions while trade generally is greatly de-
pressed, the inclemency of the weather in
creased the quietness considerably. Receipts
of produce yesterday were moderate, but
largely in excess of the requirements OF the
day. In fact there are few commodities in
which dealers are not heavily overstocked.
Values are lacking in stability, and the situ-
alton generally is in favor of the buying ele-
ment.
Fresh Fruits are meeting with a very light
inquiry, and even the low prices quoted are
subjected to shading rather than lose sale.
Oranges are in liberal supply, but sales are
rather slow, and the prices are low. Lines
sell well at fair figures, but Lemons are very
duh. Choice red Apples are held steady, and
as the supply of this grade is very small, deal
ers are able to obtain full figures. Sales
other grades are slow and prices low and
variable.
Small constituents of Asparagus and
Green Peas were received from Los Angeles
yesterday, but sales were SLOW. There were
no String Beans. Choice Onions are in light
supply, and the quoted rates are firmly held.
Potatoes are in good supply. but selling hg-
ureS are steady.
Dried Fruits continue in heavy supply, and
the trade movement shows no improvement.
Receipts are greater than the demand, and
prices remain low.
Dairy products are selling quite well, but
values are rather easy. Supplies of Butter are
liberal, and ranch Eggs are fairly steady.
Poultry is plentiful, and prices are low and
easy.
Game is in good supply. but sales are rather
slow.
Wheat continues dull, and the demand is of
small proportions.
