San Francisco, February 9Th.

San Francisco, February 9Th.
Wheat is steady at the previous prices;
both the speculative and spot markets
are rather quiet; a cargo of 70, 432 centals
arrived for export. Barley is very quiet
and steady at unchanged prices. Oats and
Corn are inactive; no receipts of either
this morning. Rye is arriving more freely
and moves off fairly well. Nothing doing
in Buckwheat, and quotations are
nominal
Potatoes are still weak, with rather a
slow demand; Sweets are in light supply.
California Onions are frmer. Green Peas
are doing better. Some very choice AS
paragus brought 25c this morning. Very
few good String Beans offering.
Apples and Oranges continue rather
weak, with liberal stocks and limited de-
mand. There are still a lot Of frosted
Oranges on the market, which sell for less
than quotations. Bananas and Pineap-
pies appear to be pretty well cleaned up.
Dried Fruits show no further change.
Although prices are not advanced the
Produce markets show better feeling.
The Egg receipts, which for a few days
were rather heavy, have moderated, and
steadier feeling is noticeable.
The car of Eastern Poultry is cleaning
up readily at 50 50Q6 for Hens, S6Q7 for
young BOOSTERS, 81 2J04 80 for old
fornia stock is somewhat easier. Good
dressed Turkeys move we'll. Old Chickens
are not wanted. Game was not heavy
but there is not much demand.
