COMMERCIAL.
EASIER FEELING IN WHEAT AT
SAN FRANCISCO.
The Speculative rIarket Quite Active,
But Prices Show a Decline
Barley Firm.

San Francisco, Oct I'd.
Wheat is easier; spot prices are not as
uncertain as yesterday. The speculative
market is quite active, but prices nave de-
clined; the Chicago market is moving up
and down and local spectators are kept
busy guessing. Barley is quite hrm at
the quotations. The markets are IN gooo
shape on Oats and Corn and prices rule
firm at yesterdays advance; Red OAts ior
seed are Offering. Rye Is hrm; recelpts
have been light
Berries by train arrived very late this
morning; the warm weather has sent them
in in mushy condition, and these two con-
ditions caused a decided weakening IN
prices. Very few Pomegranates offering at
present. Wine Grapes do not move Wen at
the quotations; they should bring Us ana u
per ton more than they are bringing now
Peaches are very weak and OF poor quality.
The Dried Fruit market is very strong;
fancy Apricots are advanced
