SAN FRANCISCO, August 28th.
Trade IN Wheat moves along quietly, the
demand for shipping purposes not being
either large or pressing Offerings are fair
and quite sufficient TO meet all Immediate re-
quirements. Prices are soft, in sympathy
with the situation at foreign centers.
Business in feed descriptions OF Barley is OF
Father small volume and prices show no
marked strength. Strictly choice bright leed
Is somewhat scarce and would perhaps sell in
a small way above quoted figures. For Brew
1ng ana Chevalier Barley there is pretty fair
inquiry, both kinds being taken for export
purposes. A sailing vessel goes TO sea to-day
wholly laden with Barley Tor London, and
another vessel VIII clear either to-day or to-
morrow for England with about 10000 cen
tals as part cargo.
The Oat market is very unintereStlng.
Stocks are being steadily increased by ar
rivals OF new crop from domestic points, and
very soon conslgnments from the north Will
be coming forward. Unless consump ption IN
crease largely in the near future prices are
more than likely TO MAKE further tumble.
The recel pts OF NegelaDleS continue heaNy-
Tomatoes are damaged by the neat. Sweet
Potatoes higher. Onions weak. Prices else
The bulk of the fresh Fruit ana Ferries
coming IN is cooked" to a great extent and
tie market price suffers IN consequence.
Melons alone have done well lately. Lines
are very scarce.
The market for Dairy Produce is practically
unchanged. Butter continues weak. Eggs
are firm and Cheese steady.
The Poultry market is very dull ana STOCK
0t all kinds As cheap.
Produce Market.
FLOUR-The outward China steamer to-day
Is expected To carry another large shipment.
