DESCRIPTIONS.
Barley Quiet, and Brewing Lower
Trading in Oats Continues
Light.
San Francisco. Aug 18th.

San Francisco, Aug. 18th.
Wheat is easier for milling descriptions;
quotations for shipping Wheat are prac-
ucally nominal. Barley is easy and
quiet; brewing is lower; a cargo is down
from Port Costa for export. Trading in
oats continues light and prices unchanged.
NO Corn arrived to-day, but there is plenty
here and the market is weak and quiet,
with slightly easier prices for Yellows.
Potatoes show weakening tendency for
for the better class, although prices are
not actually lower; the cheaper Potatoes
are very weak and dragging. The market
generally on Vegetables is sick and drag
ging; almost everything is in over-supply,
with few buyers. River Tomatoes and
sack Corn are lower.
The condition of affairs in the Fruit
market is, if it is possible, worse than it
has been. The supply of all kinds largely
exceeds the demand, and it is carried over
from day to day and finally dumped. There
Is no movement worthy OF special mention,
all kinds dragging. Quotations for luck
leberrieS are nominal; none here at pres
ent. A car of Watermelons arrived from
Winters, the first from that section
All Butter, except fancy roll IS easy, and
lower prices are predicted. Cheese con-
tinues firm at previous figures Eggs are
accommodating rapidly and prices are weak
ening; receipts from all sources are large
are well stocked and cold storage supplies
show no signs of exhaustion.
