San Francisco, February 20th.
The wheat market is still dull and it is
a difficult matter to get 81 13s4 for choice
shipping wheat; the prevailing rate is
81 121a per Genital; futures are lower and
business is lighter. Milling Wheat is
steadier. but quiet. Barley is quiet and un-
changed; in fact, there has been little
doing, both on and off call for some time
past. Oats are weak; prices are lower;
demand is light and offerings are large.
There has been a revision of prices in
Beans, as will be seen. The same dull
ness that has been noticeable for some
time still prevails.
The Potato market is next to demoral-
lied; the supply is heavy, demand light
and prices weak. Onions are rather firm
Tor Oregon stock. but CALIFORNIA; are
weak. The Los Angeles Tomatoes now
here are not in good condition and move
slowly; a lot of 271 boxes were received
from Mexico in good order, and sold at
p Ioqz per box. The String Beans of
1erlng are held-over and dragging. As
paraguS takes a wide range; the top quo

S9cumbers move very slowly; but few
Butter stands at yesterdays decline (;
]here seems to be great deal of uncer-
tEllty among dealers as to the exact con-
0ltIon OF aHalrS, some claiming that the
market IS weak, while others are equally
IS certain that prices are not lower The
general feeling is easier. Some of the
lower grade Butter is arriving in poor
shape. Eggs are weaker. Everybody is
dooklng Tor cheap Eggs. and ranch goods
