Wheat Market Dull, With Trading

Dairy Products Selling Freely, But as
Supplies ara Heavy, Prices
are Low.
SAN FRANCISCO. February Sd.

The movement of trade in the local Produce
and Merchandise markets yesterday was
moderate, and prices were substantially the
same as on the preceding day. Receipts of
Produce were rather above the average, but
were we'll distributed. The Wheat market
remains dull, with trading mostly confined to
dealing in futures. Fresh Fruits are meeting
with an improved inquiry as a result OF
warmer weather, though, while sales are
more extensive, there is not much if any,
material advance i'll selling figures. In some
lines values are tirmer and occasional sales
are reported at slightly advanced rates. Fancy
navel Oranges are in good supply, and deal
ers are holding quite steadily TO their asking
figures. Seedlings continue to sell freely at
quoted rates. The supply of Apples contin-
ues liberal, and, under a slight inquiry prices
are low and weak. Bananas and other trop-
ical Fruits are in good supply, and values are
steady on good stock. The demand however,
is quite light. Sales of Nuts are very small.
Vegetables are coming to hand a little more
freely, and the demand continues quite
steady. The movement in Dried Fruits shows
slight improvement IN volume, but prices
remain about the same quoted, and where
there are variations from the quotations the
turn is almost always downward. Dealers,
however, are looking forward to some ma
terial improvement toward the close of the
present month. Dairy Products are selling
freely, Dut at very low ngureS, ana, as sup
plies are generally heavy, there are some deal
crs who are willing to shade the quoted rat S
in order to effect sales. Poultry is quiet, with
some variations in prices among dealers.
