Wheat in the San Francisco Market
Dull and Unchanged.
Barley Stronger. Owing to the Light
Oferings-oats Show No Change,
the Market Being Lifeless.
San Francigco. February l7th.

San Francisco, February 18th.
Wheat is dull and unchanged; two car
goes were cleared Saturday for Europe
and one for South Africa. Barley IS
stronger, owing to the light offerings.
Oats show no change; the market is me-
less; over LOO centals in to-day. Another
lot of 800 centals of Corn arrived from
Nebraska; total receipts were 4S0O
eentals: not much changing hands and
prices are not disturbed. Rye seems TO
be weaker.
Potatoes and Onions are weak; prices
are unchanged and the demand is slow,
with liberal stocks on hand. Green Peas
are quite weak and lower, some poor stock
going as low as &c per 1b; there were ITO
sacks in. Receipts of Tomatoes were 20
boxes, of Asparagus Al boxes, and OF
Mushrooms so boxes. Some choice Ala
media Asparagus brought 25c per ID. Egg
plant is not much wanted. No Green
Peppers in this morning, but the range has
been from 10c to 121ac. Mushrooms are
lower and find slow sale.
The Apple market though weak and
well supplied, is no lower as yet, but a
break is not unlikely; receipts were over
1000 boxes; a car of Siskiyou Apples IS on
the market. The Orange receipts
amounted to sixteen cars, four of which
are for trans-shipment by steamer TO
Oregon and Washington; the market is
weak. Yesterdays Honolulu steamer
brought 2,700 punches of Bananas.
Butter and Cheese remain steady at
previous prices, with light stocks and good
demand. Eggs, though easier, are no
lower as yet; day or two more Will
probably see drop.
