Wheat Situation Not as Encouraging
as Sellers Might Desire,
Steady Inquiry for Shipping Purposes,
but Low Prices Have to be
Accepted.
SAN Francisco. March 22, 1895


The Wheat situation is not as encouraging
as sellers might desire. There is steady in
quiry for shipping purposes, but low prices
have to be accepted in order to do business
Apparently, there is no pressure to realize,
but exporters seem to fill all wants without
difficulty, as the loading and clearing of grain
cargoes goes along with steady regularity
Three vessels have already cleared this week
and others are likely to follow before to-1nor-
row night.
Moist weather is favorable for growing
crops of Barley, but it does not have stimu-
Iating influence on trade. With quiet and
limited demand prices are necessarily weak
Business IN Oats has not been of active char
acter this week, and no great inroads have
been made on stocks. AS a consequence quo
tations show easy tone.
There are no changes OF consequence in quo
tations for Dairy Products. Receipts OF all
kinds continue large, and prices still shape in
favor of consumers,
Meats vary but little in price, the demand
being readily satisfied, as arrivals are ample.
supplies OF Poultry are enough to meet all
present requirements. Shipments from East
ern directions are again coming forward.
In Fruits and Vegetables there are no new
features, while changes in quotations are not
important.
