Wheat Prices Continue to Decline
The End Not Yet Reached.
The Immediate Situation in Barley
Not Encouraging for
Holders.
SAN FRANcIsco, February 9th.

SAN FRANCISCO, February 9th.
The Wheat market continues to decline.
Prices have reached such low point that it
would hardly seem probable that lower
basis would be reached. But it is the general
opinion of operators that the end is not yet
and that further softening of values is yet to
be expected To-day. spot Wheat up to the
No. 1 Shipping standard is not quotable over
95c p ctl, with easy tendency. A choice par
eel might bring 96Ac. Milling grades are
quotable az $1@1 O334, though some holders
OF fancy lots are yet asking 81 o5 ctl. The
immediate situation in Barley is not encour-
aging for holders, as there is no demand and
business drags in consequence. Prices are
rather easy at the moment.
The demand for green Vegetables continues
light and receipts are less than usual. Po-
tatoes ale steady but weak. Onious are very
firm.
In Fresh Fruits the demand is practically
limited to Oranges and the better quality of
Apples. Cranberries are no longer worth
quoting.
The Butter market holds firm at the adj
vance. The demand is active and stocks are
light. The Egg market is lower again. Cheese
is unchanged:
The Poultry market is very weak and busi-
ness is dull, with Eastern stock arriving in
quantity. Game is in good supply.with prices
low.
