There Being More Than Enough
Stock to Meet Wants.

SAN FRANCISCO, January 25th.
The sample Wheat market is duh and un-
Interesting There is no general deman d.
while at the same time the quantity of stock
offering for sale is not large and the desire to
realize is not particularly pronounced For
standard shipping Wheat S21ac p ctl is the
limit TO which buyers will go, though perhaps
$3.50 would be obtainable for something of
fancy character. The inquiry for milling
Wheat continues fair and prices remain sta
tionary at range Of S714@921ac p ctl.
The Barley situation lacks activity. Offer
ings in the sample market are not of liberal
proportions, but there is more than enough
STOCK to meet the present wants. Prices are
not strong, and it is only by steady holding
that quotations are kept in position.
While there is no positive change in values,
the Oat market generally presents better
shape. The inquiry is increasing, and dealers
are hopeful of more active business in the
near future. Stocks are of fairly liberal pro-
portions and sales viii have to be somewhat
Tree before any material advance IN rates oc-
ours.
Butter is becoming more plentiful and IS q
little cheaper at wholesale, though retail fig
ureS are as yet undisturbed. Eggs are drop
ping down in price, owing to large arrivals.
The Poultry market is not so heavily
stocked and prices for Hens, BOOSTERS and
Turkeys are shade higher.
Sicily Lemons are in the market again.
Choice Apples arein good demand. Pears are
almost out. Fresh arrivals of Bananas and
Pineapples during the week.
New summer Squash has made its appear
ance on the vegetable stalls. Rhubarb is in
better supply. Asparagus is increasing IN
supply, while receipts of String Beans and
Green Peas continue small.
