San Francisco, Dec. 9TH
Wheat is again up. For the past lew
days the market has been playing It's see
saw game, both in this and the Chicago
markets. On Thursday it advanced
sharply, yesterday it broke, and to-day II
took another upward jump Barley
is quite steady, though not very acuVe'
Oats are not changing hands very quickly
and prices remain unchanged.
There seems to be sale for certain
limited quantity of fruit, and any excess
carries over and consequently has to Sell
at almost any price; this is particularly
true of Grapes. Cranberries are weaker.
Choice Apples are in fair demand, but or
dinary stock sells low. Pears are nominal
at the quotations.
Butter and Eggs are weak, under lncreAs-
ing supplies, and Cheese is firm.
