WHEAT UNCHANGED, ALTHOUGH
AN EASIER FEELING.
Barley Is Quiet - Ordinary Grades
Easy and Choice Feed
Firmly Held.
San Francisco. Dec. 3oth.

San Francisco, Dec. 3oth.
Wheat Is unchanged, although there Is
an easier feeling; cargo of $1,000 centais
down from Port Costa for Europe. NO
changes in Flour; the China steamer took
out over 1900 barrels, and there were
also shipments to Central America and
Honolulu. Barley Is quiet; ordinary
grades easy and choice feed firmly held.
No changes In Oats and trading light.
Small Yellow Corn is lower, and the entire
market is weak; the Eastern product still
arrives.
There were not many Apples in to-day,
and the demand continues very light Or
anges also move slowly. The market is
quite bare of Mexican Lines, and for the
few here fancy prices are asked; the
steamer that was to have left Acapulco
about ten days ago has not yet left Fer
sian Dates are also very scarce; fresh
lot will be here about the Sth prox.
Owing to the increased receipts OF Grape
Fruit prices have declined; occasionally
box brings above the outside figure:
There seems to be considerable differ
ence of opinion among dealers on the SUP
ject Of Creamery Butter. Some claim
the market steady at 23c, while others hnd
1t very weak at 21c as extreme; our hgures
are fair average. They all agree on the
NSdhHeSS Ol uOW6SSA. Midi AL diiSA
the southern counties are shipped in lib
orally. and Humboldt and northern coun-
ties also send considerable. Eggs are
very firm, but it is only temporary. Re-
ceiptS are becoming heavier and there
will be a decline soon. There are hardly
any Eastern Eggs here, and quotations
will soon be omitted.
