THE GENERAL FEELING IN
WHEAT RATHER WEAK.
Barley Easier, and Choice Feed Lower
White Feed and Surprise
Oats Higher.

sSan Francisco, Dec. nth.
No changes in spot Wheat. English mar
kets are lower, but Chicago is trying hard
to hold up. The general feeling is rather
weak than otherwise. Barley is easier;
choice feed is lower, and our outside figure
Is extreme; extra choice bright would
bring SOC, but there is none offering. Oats
are marked up for White Feed and Sur
prise; large receipts of milling Oats from
the north to-day. Rye is very quiet and
weak. Buckwheat is lower, but quota
uons are nominal.
Apples are coming along quite freely,
and prices are easy, though not lower;
about 2,4OO boxes in to-day. Some fancy
Pears are bringing more money. Grapes
are not wanted. Persimmons drag from
day to day, and then have to be dumped.
No carloads of Oranges in, but quite lot
came by steamer; the market continues
weak, and So is an extreme for Navels
No change to-day in Butter, but choice
grades sell better than inferior; consumers
are still running on Picked Butter. There
is no life to the Egg market and down.
