SAN FRANCISCO, February Sth
Business in Wheat is not of active charac-
ter though indications are favorable for bet
ter trade in the near future Just now. how
ever daily transactions on export account are
Of moderate proportions, but the slightest i'm
provement abroad would promptly stimulate
the local situation. Standard shipping Wheat
is quotahle at s23ac 2 ctl, while a more choice
article would bring $3.50. Milling Wheat is
not quick OF movement and full figures are
only obtainable for attractive offerings.
1t seems dithcult task to arouse anything
like general interest in Barley. Buyers will
not take hold to any extent, being satisfied to
purchase just when required to meet immedi-
ate needs. Trade, therefore, is of dragging
character and small volume.
Receipts Of cats just now from domestic
sources are nominal. while supplies from out
side points have dwindled down naturally in
quantity. If trade were at all brisk, good in
roads would soon be made in stocks, and
prices would likely do better. But the in
curry at the moment is not of pronounced
character, and dealers will have to await re-
NlNal of interest III the market on the part of
buyers.
Butter isno lower, though the market shows
declining tendency. ordinary store Eggs are
cheaper, but large, clean product direct from
hennery, VIII bring fancy quotations.
Poultry continues low i'll price, the market
being oyerstocked III the moment.
