Fair Demand for Wheat on Export
Account.
Feed Descriptions of Barley Slow OF
Movement-The Oats Market
Drags Badly.
SAN FRANCISCO. August s1st.

San FRANCISCO, August 31st.
There is fair demand for Wheat on export
account, and all suitable parcels are taken at
current rates. AT the same time ii should be
stated that there is no great pressure Of offer
ings and the volume of trade is of rather mod
crate proportions. Increased activity is ex-
pected az the season wears along.
Feed descriptions of Barley are rather slow
OF movement, the inquiry for local uses being
somewhat limited. Millers are doing very
little IN the way of purchasing, as really
bright stock is scarce, and this is about the
only kind they will sample. Brewing quail
ties continue to receive attention, still being
wanted for shipping purposes. Chevalier also
receives recognition from leading exporters.
About all the standard Cheyalier is gathered
in and marketed SO that very little now re-
mains in the hands of growers.
The Oat market drags badly. Stocks are
large, while custom is light and slow, so that
the market is still topheavy. Prices We're
lowered this week in the hope of stimulating
the demand, but such result has not yet been
obtained. The tendency is TO yet lower
range OF values.
more plentiful and quotations are shade
easier. Eggs continue TO advance, under light
stocks: Cheese remains steady, receipts
being tree and custom good.
Poultry arrivals are more than enough TO
satisfy current wants and consumers still
have the advantage OF an easy market.
Receipts OF Peaches and Bartlett Pears have
not been quite as heavy during the past few
days, but stocks OF about all other fruits con-
ttnue IN liberal Offering.
There is no marked diminution in the con-
Bignments of Vegetables. all kinds being well
