San Francisco. Sept. oath.


lime IN the line of Wheat and Barley
cholce offerings sell readily and the mar
v's are quite firm. A sharp advance IN
:" neat both spot and futures, and market
very active. Wheat receipts included 49,
wv centals for export. Following the re-
cent advances in Wheat, an advance of 15c
per barrel has been made in Flour. Feed
oariey Is higher and firm. Ga s are still
scarce and prices are firm; there is not
great deal doing. Rye has strengthened,
anu iUc is asked for choice lots.
falr weather is sending in table Grapes
again; for couple of days they were held
pack and gave the market chance to
prace up, but it is again weak and prices
are lower. Receipts of Wine Grapes are
sui light; they are not in quick demand
as yet. Berries are weaker; the supply
is not very laAge, but there is no demand
to speak Of Over 600 crates of Canta-
loupes arrived to-day and prices are easier.
Not many Ounces here at present; but
then a limited amount of this fruit goes a
long way. Mexican Lines are weaker
Butter quotations remain undiSturbed
and slightly. better feeling IS noticeable
still not enough to advance prices. Cheese
has been rather quiet of late and shelves
are beginning to fill up; former prices
are sustained, however Eggs are the
only articles in the list that show strength !;
better prices for store lots are noted, and
there is also tendency to advance the
made at Bic, but not enough TO make II
quotable
Produce Quotations.
