The Wheat Market Quiet, While
Prices Keep Moderately Steady.
Barley Drags Badly, the Demand Be-

quiry for Oats.
SAN Francisco. January

SAN FRANCISCO, January 11th.
So far this month only two vessels have
cleared with Wheat cargoes. AT the moment
the market is quiet, while prices keep mod
erately steady. For standard shipping Wheat
871ac p ctl is about the top rate, though SS34c
could likely be obtained for choice offering.
Barley drags badly. The demand for local
use is light and slow, while no shipping in
quiry prevails. Under such circumstances it
is to be expected that prices should rule easy.
The inquiry for Oats is neither general nor
pressing, while stocks are of rather liberal
proportions. Prices were lowered during the
week, but that action did not bring out any
extra demand.
Strictly choice Butter is scarce and quota
tions for such stock continue firm, while of
poor quality there is an abundance. Eggs are
likely TO be cheaper in a day or two, as the
roads are drying up.
Poultry and Game are both in liberal re-
ceipt, with prices favorable to consumers.
Cranberries are a trltle dearer Oranges are
coming in freely, while of Apples the supply
IS III excess OF market needs. Strawberries
from Los Angeles arrived this week, but they
were poor and unstable.
Asparagus is making better exhibit, being q
shade lower in price. Los Angeles tomatoes
are III good receipt for the time of year. Vol
! unteer new crop Potatoes also make good
showing. Green Peas and String Beans are
in light offering and slow of sale.
