Prices for California Wheat Fairly Well
Sustained.
Much Better Tone to the Barley
Marl1et-Fruit Prices Poorly
Sustained.
san FRANCISCO. January goth.

y
Traffic in the local Produce markets was
not active. but the general movement was
fair and values in some lines were held quite
nrmly. The days receipts were not as large
as was expected, but there was more than suf-
hcient to meet the requirements.
California Wheat is still in rather small
supply for export purposes, and prices,
though low, are fairly well sustained. Walla
Walla and Oregon Wheat is meeting with
quite good steady demand, and choice Blue
stone sells readily at full figures. Milling
grades are in fair demand. but it must be
choice California Grain to bring full rates.
The northern milling Wheat is very slow to
sell. Barley has been on the down grade for
some days, but yesterday the inquiry was
such that better tone developed.
Fresh Fruits remain almost unchanged
from day to day, prices being poorly sus-
tanned and supplies being so liberal that buy
ers have control of the situation. Choice APP
pies are in fair supply and prices are weak.
There is no demand for Pears and Persim-
mons. Naval Oranges are in excessive supply,
with the inquiry small. Dealers are trying
10 sustain the present low figures, but meet
With only partial success Mexican Lines
are plentiful and SLOW to sell. Bananas and
Pineapples are being freely offered at the
quoted rates.
Vegetables are in moderate supply and the
demand quite steady. Mustard Seed is being
offered very sparingly and values have a
nrmer tone, Transactions, however, are
rather small.
Dried Fruits begin to show little more
activity than for some time past. Orders are
more extensive and, while the quoted prices
are steadier, there is no actual advance as yet.
Dairy Products are selling well at the re-
Gently reduced rates. Both Creamery and
Fancy Dairy Butter are plentiful and prices
are occasionally being shaded. Cheese Is in
fair supply and easy. Eggs are abundant and
prices have downward tendency. Poultry
sells rather slowly.
