The Wheat Market Quiet, But the
General Tone Good.
Fresh Fruits Meet With a Very Salts
factory Demand, at the
Ruling Prices.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 1st
The Wheat market is quiet, but the general
tone is good Fresh Fruits met with a very
satisfactory demand yesterday, and prices
were held steady at the ruling figures OF the
preceding day. Oranges are coming TO hand
steadily but the receipts of each day are very
moderate, and just about sufficient to meet
the present trade requirements. Some OF the
fruit recently received has been rather green,
ana this has not moved off as well as IL would
had picking been deferred week or SO.
Choice Navels are very moderate in price, and
the demand is active. Seedlings are cheap
but rather slow to sell except in limited
way. Grapes are plentiful, but the inquiry
has decreased to such an extent that even the
most desirable stock is slow TO find buyers
except in small lots. Apples are abundant,
but only small proportion of the stock offer
ing can be considered as desirable. The choice
stock is selling rather slowly, and prices are a
trifle lower. Common varieties sell at low
rates. Very few Berries are in market, Dut
the demand has nearly ceased. Inc inquiry
for Tropical Fruits is fairly active, ana prices
well sustained. Potatoes are held STEADY.
Vegetables are selling well, with but sllght
fluctuations in values. The sales OF DRIED
Fruits are not heavy, but there Is a suInclent
demand to enable dealers TO maintain their
asking figures well up to full quotations.
Shipments to the Eastern States from san
Jose and other interior fruit centerS are quite
large, and there has recently been some lotS
OF local stock taken for export account. Inc
advance in prices of Butter has been quite
well sustained, and although the local de-
mand has decreased 10 some extent, the re-
ceipts have also fallen of materially, SO mat
the market has remained firm. R1ncn Eggs
are in good supply, and prices are unchanged
The inquiry tor Poultry was fair yesterday,
and as supplies We're light prices were al
yanced.
