Barley Market Not Very Brisk One
Sellers OF Oats Are at
Disadvantage.

SAN FRANCISCO, September 4th.
The movement on export account in Wheat
is not very rapid, and the immediate outlook
is not particularly promising for any great
increase OF activity. Shippers are taking
matters leisurely. and are likely to continue
doing so until something occurs at distant
centers TO stimulate local trading.
The Barley market is not brisk one. At
the same time business is active enough to
Keep matters in fair motion. Feed Barley is
not IN excessive Offering, but sainpling is
slow and the situation lacks vim. Both
Brewing and Chevalier descriptions are in
request for shipping uses, and suitable par
GELS lind ready custom at current figures.
Sellers OF Oats are at disadvantage, the
offerings being larger than can be conven-
lently handled. Dealers again lowered prices
this week in hopes of increasing custom, but.
SO far, no such desired result has followed.
Arrivals are coming down quite freely from
the north, and very soon there is likely to be
large stocks in warehouse. Receipts to-day
and yesterday included 5000 centals from
Oregon.
Business in Hops at the moment is at
standstiH. New crop will soon be on the
market IN sufficient quantity to allow of
some trading being done, providing contract
ing parties can agree as 90 values. Just now
quotations are altogether nominal at 496c
Tor old and 7@9c 2 70 for new. In reviewing
.
Picking on this coast is now general. and IN
dicatlons point to "a crop OF about 10000
bales. The market price has not ruled low
during the past ten years as 1t is at present
namely, 6QlOc. The railroad companies
have voluntarily accepted the situation, re-
ducing the rate OF freight from So 90 to 81 90
from California terminal points and 81 20
from Oregon and Washington terminal
points, in carload lots, minimum weight
10000 lbs, thereby materially assisting grow
ers, placing their goods to Eastern consumers
IN competition with New York state Hops"
The market Tor Vegetables is well supplied,
with business dull. Potatoes are weaker.
Onions are firm. Prices elsewhere unchanged.
With the exception OF an adyaace in Lines
and Berries, there are no changes in Fresh
Fruits. Peaches and Pears are firm.
The Butter market is shade nrmer, with
sales above quotations. store Eggs are
weaker. The Poultry market Is STEADY, with
heavy supplies. Business is dull
