COMMERCIAL.
Wheat Prices Steady Without Being
Buoyant.
Barley onerings Free, Though Custom
Is Anything But
Quick.
SAN FRANc1soo, August goth.


The Wheat market lacks spirit and trade
keeps of rather moderate proportions. Prices
are steady, without being buoyant
No change in Barley quotations. Offerings
are free. though custom is anything but
quick.
The recent reduction in asking rates has
not brought out any better demand for Oats.
and the market still drags along in unsatis-
factory fashion.
The Vegetable market is heavily stocked
with Tomatoes. Potatoes and Onions hold
firm.
In Fresh Fruits there was no change re-
ported outside of frmer prices for freestone
Peaches. Melons are in heavy supply. Grapes
move OF slowly.
The weakness in the Butter market still
continues, and higher grades are reduced IN
prices. Eggs are firm at quotations.
The Poultry market is wei supplied with
all varieties. a carload Of Eastern mas Just
Produce Market.
