VERY ACTIVE.

ward Tendency-MOre Trad
ing in Oats.
San Francisco, Dec. Sth.

WHEAT Is uncnanged ana Hot Nciy az
tive; the speculative market has an easier
feeling. Barley is quiet and feed has
downward tendency; brewing is nominal
There is more trading in Oats, but prices
show no change. Corn is also moving
little better, but at no better prices. Rye
is quiet and easy.
With the exception of firmer Apple
market and an easier feeling in Oranges
there is not much to report. A few extra
choice Eastern Apples bring more than
quotations. Fancy Apples in boxes are
scarce. Oranges are accumulating; two
cars arrived yesterday and two to-day,
and stocks are increasing. Seedlings are
weaker Very few Grapes Offering, and
none strictly choice Not much call for
Lemons and Lines.
Potatoes continue in liberal receipt and
the market is now pretty well stocked, es-
pecially with common grades; prices have
not yet been lowered. tomatoes are
higher; from Los Angeles they bring zoe
In boxes but sell slowly. Sweet Potatoes
are weaker; supply is too heavy for the
demand Good Mushrooms sell WELL but
other kinds are not wanted. Peas and
String Beans from Los Angeles bring good
prices. Asparagus from Sacramento
brings about 35c per pound.
Butter is weak The quality of some of
the Roll Butter is poor, especially from
Marin County. Some Humboldt cream
cries bring above the quotation, but they
are few. There are quite a lot Of Eastern
Eggs here, and native receipts are also
liberal; as a consequence the market is
easy, and prices are gradually dropping
