No Active Movement in Progress in
the Wheat Market.
Trade in Barley Slow and Dull-Little
Doing at Present in the
Oat Market.
san FRANCISCO, January 29th,


There is no active movement in progress in
the Wheat line. OF course there is enough
doing all the time to prevent the spot market
from getting into a rut OF stagnation, but bus
mess generally is of unsatisfactory character
Exporters take scarcely any interest in mat
ters though seemingly ready to buy when
figures and offerings suit their ideas. Things
will have to change for the better at distant
centers before any local movement can be
expected. shippers quote the market to-day
at SIG per Genital for standard Wheat, with
S23ac tor choice parcels Possibly a round lot
could be placed to better advantage, as ex-
Porters would sooner buy large parcels even
at an advance.
Brlsk trading is not q feature of the sample
Barley market. On the contrary. trade is
SLOW and dull, with prices soft. Some specu-
IatiVe business is developing in the Call
Board, the favorite option being May deliv
cry. Both yesterday and to-day there was
fair activity in speculative circles, though at
steadily declining rates. The promise at the
moment is certainly not favorable for the
selling interest.
Offerings of oats are rather too large at the
present time for any effort TO raise prices to
be successful. At the same time there are in
dlcations that the market will do better in
proper season. The demand has improved
somewhat of late and dealers are rather en-
cOuraged than otherwise at the outlook.
The Produce markets are very slow, with q
low range of prices. Butter and Eggs are both
weak but unchanged. Poultry holds firm
outside OF turkeys. Fruit of all kinds dull
and weak. Game unchanged. Early Negeta-
bles scarce. onions urm.
