The Price of Spot Wheat a Pulling
Question.
The Barley Market Very Dull, With
No Immediate Prospect of
Improvement.

The price of spot Wheat has been puzzIing
question for the past two days. Speculation
has carried quotations away out of all reason,
considering the general conditions of the situ-
alton. On Monday May Wheat scored an ad-
vance OF SC 2 ctl in the Cali Board, which ma
turally had its effect on the sample market by
giving it a more or less unsettled and feVerlsn
character. This morning there was a drop oil
&c p ctl. For shipping purposes standard
Wheat is quotable at 927a@95c y cIl' Whlle
for Call Board uses probably 81 would be
psid. Sales were made to-day OF 600 tons,
March delivery, seasons storage paid, at
81 O4s<@l O5 . ctl The Barley market is
very dull and the immediate prospects are
not favorable for any marked improvement
in matters Feed descriptions are in limited
demand even the wants OF mlllers being
small There is still some shipping movement
in Brewing qualities, and this trade tends to
keep the market in position. Trade in Oats Is
not of large proportions, While oneflnes are
quite liberal and holders are anxious 10 90
business With a view of drawing out more
custom prices were lowered yesterday, but, SO
tar, there has been no perceptiole increase III
the demand.
There is little doing in the Vegetable mar
ket. Receipts are light and prices are weak.
Potatoes are very weak at quotations onions
are frmer.
AT auction yesterday afternoon two car
loads OF Oranges were disposed OF at generally
ruling rates IN open market. Lines are weak.
The Butter market Is weak at quotations,
with a light shading of in fancy grades. Eggs
have firmer tendency. Cheese rules steady.
The Poultry market is unchanged. Receipts
are still heavy OF Eastern stock Game Is very
quiet
