LITTLE CHANCE FOR AN I'M
PROVErlENT in WHEAT.
Feed Barley Firm at the Quotations
Given-FlOur Fairly Active
at Previous Prices.
San Francisco, April 29th.

San Francisco, April 18th.
With Eastern markets low and loca
business light, there is little chance for ar
improvement in prices, and Spot Wheat
remains unchanged; two cargoeS dowT
from Port Costa, one for England, the
other for Australia. Feed Barley is firn
at the quotations; not great deal chang
ing hands; cargo of Brewing arrived to-
day from Port Costa for England. Rye
is fairly steady and quiet. Flour is fairly
active at previous prices; nearly 1,0oo bar
rels were shipped yesterday.
Receipts were 375 boxes of Asparagus
54S boxes Rhubarb, 1,O13 sacks Peas and
S96 sacks New Potatoes. There was not
much Asparagus in, but it moved slowly
light shipping demand. Peas are still
weaker; some poor stuff has to go foI
less than the insIoe quotations.. Rhubart
IS again coming forward freely, and Is
lower. New Potatoes are in large receipt
weak and lower; old varieties are firm and
some are higher.
The few Raspberries received sold for
81 90 per drawer. There were 524 chests OF
strawberries received, but many are in
such dirty condition that they are really
sacrificed, some being offered at 81 90 per
chest, without buyer others are too
green to bring any fair price; for good,
clean berries there is no difficulty in OBJ
tanning 81 or 81 more per chest than our
outside figure but for a large portion OF
to-day's receipts the farmer will probably
receive small returns There We're 426
boxes of Cherries received, and the Black
variety is lower.
