SAN FRANCISCO, April 21st.
Receipts OF Barley for the past few days
have been very small, and both millers and
brewers are drawing on the stocks piled in
Call Board warehouses. The demand among
local operators continues active, and it viii
probably so remain as long as the dry weather
continues. Prices yesterday were about the
same as on the two preceding days, and the
tone Of the market is steady. AT the informal
session of the Call Board yesterday the cloudy
weather caused buyers to hold off somewhat,
and values for the time were easy and lower.
Later In the day, however, the clouds scat
tered and the buoyant tone soon became man
1iest again and prices were higher IhIs con-
dition of affairs, however, has practically
stopped the export movement. and the de-
mand for shipment is therefore light. Many
leading dealers express doubts as TO Barley
going much higher. for the reason that it
would not be profitable for feed purposes as
long as Wheat remains so cheap. There is
but little doing in Wheat. even in the Call
Board. The long continued dry weather has
given the bull element more courage a.
though reports from Wheat-growing sections
are very favorable for fair crops. ALI descrip-
tlon Of Feed Oats are held firmly at high
figures.
In the local produce markets the volume of
trade yesterday was good and values We're
held steady. Fresh Fruits are meeting with
good inquiry at the quoted rates. Dried
Fruits are selling readily, while stocks are
small and prices on the up grade. Honey is
quiet, with prices steady. Sales of Dairy Pro-
ducts are extensive, but values are still quite
low. Receipts of Butter are moderate aud
well-proportioned to the demand. Prices are
firm at quotations, and sales of fancy brands
are made at slightly higher figures. Cheese is
plentiful and low-priceo. Eggs are in heavy
sGRIpi' duIi. anu values are weak F0ui''S Is very
