Requirements.
SAN FRANCISCO, November 4th.
Nearly all descriptions of Produce moved
off fairly W ell yesterday, but stocks continue
heavy and receipts-though largely reduced
as compared with a few weeks ago-are still
greater than the requirements of trade.
Prices remain low and generally weak.
The Wool market remains depressed. with
very gloomy outlook for both growers and
dealers.
Wheat appears to be firmer than for some
time past, and holders feel correspoadingly
encouraged.
In fresh Fruits there is scarcely any mate
riaI huctuation from day to day, the varieties
being limited but the supplies being rather
excessive. Peaches are gradually disappear
ing, and there are very few now offering
which can be considered choice. The demands
are very light and the quoted prices are
shaded TO suit buyers. Fancy Apples are
meeting with quite fair inquiry, and dealers
are holding firmly for the asking prices. Me-
dunn and inferior stock-of which there is an
abundance in the market-sels slowly at very
low prices. Late varieties OF Pears are IN GOOD
supply, but the Inquiry is OF small proper
tons, so that stock moves Oft very slowly
and dealers find it difficult to obtain satlsiat-
tory figures. The demand 1Or ounces con-
tinue rather light and only the best stock
appears to be wanted. The receipts OF Grapes
are steady and well proporlioned TO the de-
mand, but strictly fancy stock is not plentl-
ful. Many consignments are coming TO hand
in bad order, and such stock is selling Tor
whatever buyers choose TO offer.
Vegetables are abundant and selling quite
well at the quoted rates.
Dried Fruits are in liberal supply, but the
export movement is not developing much
activity. Prices remain low, and some few
sales are being made at shaded rates.
Dairy Products are weak in value, but
stocks move OF fairly well. Butter is abund-
ant, with prices very low and easy. New
Cheese is held firmly at quotations.
Ranch hggs are coming TO hand freely, but
prices are lower and still on the down grade
IN consequence OF heavy receipts OF Eastern
stock. Poultry is dull and low priced.
