Immediate Outlook in Wheat Not En-
couraging to Sellers.
The Barley Market Not an Active One
Offerings of Oats in Excess
of the Demand.
SAN FRANCISCO. FEBRUARY 18th

ketis not encouraging for sellers. Spot Wheat
is not wanted at the moment, and the de-
mand Is not likely to be urgent until there is
improvement at foreign centers. In specu-
latiye circles there has been some lively oper-
ations, and the Call Board record shows a
large volume of business for the past few
days. The Barley market is not an active
one. In fact, the present situation partakes
largely of a sleepy character, while dealers are
hoping for something 10 occur that will create
quickening movement. Prices have an easy
tone. Offerings of Oats are in excess OF the
demand, and yet lower prices would likely
prevail if stocks were not 1airiy well con-
centrated.
The receipts of green Vegetables continue
light and sales are slow. Prices are un-
changed. Potatoes are weak at quotations.
Onions rule firm. Oregon sold as high as
81 rs.
There is very little doing in the way OF fresh
Fruits. Oranges and Apples are plentiful. but
the demand is light. few Strawberries are
Offering.
The Butter market is firm, with lighter re-
ceipts. Eggs continue weak. Cheese is steady.
The Poultry market is quiet, with Eastern
In heavy stock. Game moves OF slowly.
