Wheat Market Weaker, With Lower
Quotations as Result.
No Very Great Momentum to the Sam
pie Barley Market-Oat Prices
Fairly Steady.
sAN FRANc1sco. May sth.

The feeling of weakness noted yesterday in
Wheat was much more pronounced this
morning, with lower quotations as a result.
If the market continues TO decline, prices
may soon be low enough to allow of export
ers resuming shipping operations. 1t should
be remarked, however, that the situation at
Liverpool is not very encouraging, cable ad-
vices to-day reporting a tumble OF 90 on car
goes all round, as well as slight reductloh III
the spot quotation. Milling descriptions also
show easier tone, the range being given al
81 O561 10 = ctl, with scarcely any sales at
the higher rate.
There is no very great momentum TO the
sample Barley market, while prices are not
quite so strong as they were at the close OF
last week. the buoyancy of the situation be-
ing checked by the arrival yesterday OF nearly
10000 ctls from Washington and Oregon.
About ali OF the off lois OF feed Barley have
been disposed of and offerings now comprise
good to choice quality, so that the margin OF
values is closer.
Oar prices show fair steadiness, being held
In position more or less by sympathy with
other articles used for feed purposes. lmme-
oiate receipts are quite equal 10 current
wants, so that there Is no marked dlm1nutlon
in the amount OF stocks Ia warehouses.
Strictly prime white Oats are not plentiful.
As a general remark 1t may be said that the
market is under good control and likely 10 be
we'll handled IN the interest OF sellers.
The vegetable market was unchanged this
morning. Asparagus was shade easier, but
not to any great extent. Potatoes and onions
are weak at quotations.
Berries OF all kinds we're weaker this morn
ing, under heavy receipts.
The Butter market continues weak, and the
higher grades are marked down. Eggs are
nrmer. Cheese is steady.
. The Poultry market is very quiet. Receipts
are lighter and prices steady.
