SAN FRANCISCO, February 18th.
The Wheat market is quiet and easy, the
situation being anything but satisfactory to
the producing element. Offerings are some
what limited, but they are equal to lmmedi-
ate requirements, as shippers are not disposed
10 buy much ahead in the present condition
Ordistant centers.
Barley prices have been softening for sew
eral days and very low basis has now been
reached. The demand is quite slim, and the
market drags badly, especially for feed de-
scriptions. Brewing qualities are only in
moderate supply, though ample for all pres
ent needs.
Business in Oats is slow and unsatisfactory.
Arrivals are light but custom is too small to
make any perceptible inroads on stocks.
Prices remain stationary, with the tendency
at the moment against sellers.
Apples are doing better. Lines higher.
Oranges dull. Butter and Cheese weak. Eggs
nrmer. Heavy receipts of Eastern Poultry.
Game weak at quotations. Potatoes arrive
freely. Onions steady
