San Francisco, Oct. 2sth.
Wheat showed more strength buy ei ,
are pretty much out of the market ana
spot quotations are largely governed oy
the speculative market. Futures were
quite active. Millers are buying from mana
to mouth and the outside quotatloh LOT
milling is extreme To-day's receipts in
Guided 1878 centals from Port COSTA LOT
export. The steamer City Of Dublin Is
Gown loaded and will clear to-day for Cal
cutta. This makes the second cargo Tor
Calcutta. Thus far there have been iour
cleared for India
There was an easier feeilnS III spot Bar
ley, but prices are not quoted lower; de-
mand is light; options are weak and lower.
Oats are still inactive and steady as pre-
viously quoted. Rye is quiet and prices
unchanged; no demand locally. BUCK
wheat is arriving in small lots; prices are
advanced.
Butter has become a trifie steadier;
stocks are not quite as heavy as they We're.
The Egg trade is running largely on East
ern goods and if it were not for the light
supplies Of California Eggs prices for the
home stock would probably decline. AS
ii is there is about enough demand TO
about balance receipts. Very IeW fancy
Lggs here, and store lots are practically
nominal.
