San Francisco, Aug. 18th.
Wheat is less active and there is d
slightly easier feeling, but quotations are
no lower for Spot; Futures are shade
easier; over 100, 600 centals down from Port
Costa to-day for export account Barley
is rather dull, but prices are not quotaoly
lower; receipts are liberal; two cargoes OF
Brewing, amounting to nearly 72Ooo cen
fals arrived here for export. In oats
there is fair trading, and prices are STEADY
at the advance. Corn continues dul ana
weak. Rye is not moving and prices are
weak and lower for Old.
The Fruit market is being somewhat re-
heved by the falling off in receipts gener-
ally, and better prices are obtained Tor
some kinds. Indications are that the crop
of fancy Apples will be light this year and
good prices may be expected; common va
rieties will be abundant. Berries are in
light receipt and moving well, but at no
better prices, except for the Longworth
Strawberry which are in quite limited
supply. Nectarines are about played out
for this season. Cantaloupes are a terri
BILE drug and it is only the better kind that
bring our quotations. Five cars of Water
melons arrived yesterday, mostly from
Lodi; receipts from Fresno are very light.
