Very Little Trade in Progress In Bar
ley-Drift of the Oats Market
Toward Buyers.
SAN FRANCISCO. December 18th.

There was better 1eellnS 10 Lne w neat mar
ket this morning and matters generally had
q steadier look. Shippers making fair
canvass of the several offerings. purchasing
much of the stock which is Offering.
There is very little trade in Barley in pro-
eress in the regular way, but prices are kept
steady to great extent by operations in the
Call Board, where futures show rather firm
tone.
The drift of the Oats market is rather
toward the buying interest. Receipts are not
particularly heavy, but the demand is far
from brisk, and the situation, generally, par
takes OF easy character as a consequence. No
immediate improvement is anticipated.
Business in Fresh Fruits is quiet. Grapes
some in light and sell slowly, with prices
firm. Oranges are weak, and receipts are
heavy and clearing up slowly.
There is nothing new III Vegetables. Sup
plies are fully equal to the demand. Potatoes
and Onions are steady.
The stocks of Butter continue to accumu-
late, and the market is weak. Eggs are also
lower.
The receipts of Poultry are heavy, and
ply and firm.
