SAN FRANCISCO. Sept. 30th.
Yesterday was rather quiet day in the
local produce and merchandise markets. The
-rair-seFved to keep buyers away, and there
were none in the market except those whose
necessities actually compelled them to pur-
chase supplies. The wheat market remains
in very unsatisfactory state, and trade is
very dull. In the local fruit market trade
was much depressed. There was but little in
quiry, and offers to shade prices failed to
prove an inducement to the buying element.
Receipts of the day were liberal, and the carry
over stocks were larger than usual. The fancy
grades of Peaches are becoming scarce, and
prices are held quite steady. Medium stock
is still coming to hand, but it is rather diff
cult to dispose of except at slightly shaded
rates. Choice mountain Apples continue o
meet with good inquiry, and the quoted
figures are well sustained. Bartlett pears are
in fafr supply, but trade is not particularly
active. For fancy stock full prices are readily
obtained. ounces are in liberal supply and
slow to sell even at the low prices quoted.
= Plunls are scarce and held steady. Water
melons and Cantaloupes are in over supply,
and there is scarcely any demand. Prices are
Very easy. Figs and Pomegranates are almost
completely neglected. Grapes are in fair sup
ply, and receipts are well proportioned to the
requirements OF trade. Prices are no lower,
but rather weak. Sales of dried fruit continue
light, and the demand is very small, even at
the Very low prices quoted. Large quantities
OF stock are still being held in first hands
waiting for an improvement IN market con-
ditions. Dairy products are moving oil well,
but with the exception OF Eggs prices cannot
be said to be very firm. Poultry is dull and
low priced.
