Little Change in the Wheat Market,
Buyers Holding Off.
Vegetables Sell Well at Quoted Prices
Eggs Weaker in Price-Poul-
try Market Quiet.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 18TH.
The Wheat market shows little change, with
buyers holding of. Dried Fruits are coming
TO hand steadily but the bulk I receipts will
not class among the strictly choice varieties.
Values remain about the same as during the
early portion of the week, although there IS
probably less shading OF asking figures on
the part of dealers The demand for Frunes
continues to improve, and large sizes are de-
eidedly scarce Reports from San Jose are TO
the effect that carload lots of the large size
sell readily at higher rates than the present
local quotation. Dried Peaches keep coming
in from all quarters, and while there is some
trading in the better grades, prices are not
very firm, and in some instances are almost
what the buyer chooses to bid. Apples are
rather quiet and Apricots are held steady.
The demand for Nuts shows slight improve
ment. Receipts are fair but under the in
creased inquiry there are occasional sales at
slightly advanced rates. In the local Produce
market yesterdays volume OF trade was small
and unsatisfactory Table Grapes are in good
supply, but the demand begins to show ma
terIal decrease. Prices are not very nrm as
quoted, and there is an abundance OF medium
class stock TO be had at shaded figures. There
is practically nothing dong In Wine Grapes.
Ounces are slow to sell and offerings are light
Choice Apples are selling fairly We'll Hasp-
quoted rates. A few new crop Oranges are IN
market, but sales are very slow. Vegetables
are selling well at the quoted prices. Cream
cry Butter OF strictly choice variety is in mod
crate demand and values are well sustained.
All other grades are inactive and sales are
slow. The market for Ranch Eggs IS rather
slow, and full hgures are not SO readily oD- oD-
Jained. Poultry IL quiet and Game Is dull
and low-priced.
