SAN FRANCISCO. Dec. 2eth.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. ZSth.
There is very little doing in Hops, and
the quoted figures are "a aer easy. The
local Wheat market is about stationary,
as far as volume of trade is concerned
but prices are held more firmly
There was not much activity in the local
Produce markets yesterday, and but very
few changes in quotations were an
nounced The receipts of the day were
liberal, but not excessive, and there was
considerable remaining unsold at the close
of the days business.
In the Fresh Fruit line the trade was
confined mostly to Oranges. Choice Navels
are held quite firmly at the present quota
lions, but Seedlings are quiet, and there is
some shading of asking figures IN order
to reduce accumulated supplies. The best
qualities of Apples are meeting with a
good steady inquiry, and values change
but little from day to day. Persimmons
and Pears are neglected. There are &C.
casional small quantities OF Grapes COM
ing to hand, but the quality is not extra
choice, and sales are slow, with prices un-
settled. CranDerries remain steady, ana
the inquiry shows but little signs OF de-
crease in volume.
Dried Fruits are inactive, the quantities
moving being very small. Prices are held
steady, however, and the outlook for hold
ers is not diScouraging.
Supplies Of Butter are fairly liberal, and
sales are extensive. Prices are held firmly
at the quoted rates. Strictly choice Ranch
Eggs are coming to hand in small lots,
and under a good demand prices are a
little higher and firm. Poultry is in good
supply, and selling rather slowly. Game
meets with light inquiry.
The Potato market is quiet, and the
expected demand from the southern sec
ton of the State has not yet materiallZed,
although it is daily looked for. Receipts
from the North are heavier, and values
have weaker tendency. Sweet Potatoes
are very scarce, and good stock brings
top prices readily. Honey appears to
move off quite readily, but the market
cannot be called active.
