SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 18th.
The situation in Wheat is practically I'M
changed; market is inactive and prices unois
turbed. Not much doing in Barley and prices
are steady. A steady demand for Oats at un
changed figures; receipts to-day were light
Corn also arrived lightly to-day, but the
market is still in weak condition. Buck
wheat is lower; market very quiet
Potatoes are somewhat lighter this morn
ing; Oregon Burbanks and River Reds are
firmer; small lots of Early Rose are now ar
irving. For Potatoes in general there is only
q local demand. Most of the Sweets now
come from MERGED; receipts from the river cut
but a small figure. Small lots of Asparagus
and CucumberS are in market.
Grapes did very poorly to-day; crates sold
slowly at lower prices ana boxes are moi
wanted at all. Slow sale for Apples, except
tor choice. The Orange market Is quite strong
and stock of goOd color readily brings IoI
prices; there is, however, considerable green
truIt on hand. Lines are in good order and
firm; Lemons are weak, and not much going
ut top figures.
There was no noticeable change IN Butter;
the market is still weak and prices I'M
changed, except Tor fancy rolls, which are g
1rIHe lower. A Iirmer feeling is apparent IL
Eggs but there Is nothing TO justify an al
vance III prices.
About the only thing that sells well at pres
ent IS the Eastern Poultry that Is now on the
market. California Poultry and Game are
dull and weak, excepting, possibly, turkeys
Game was quite heayy and went at buyers
prices. The weather Spoils most of 1t ano
makes it unfit Tor use.
