San Francisco, April 23t

FlOur Is QuIl at the QuOldliohS' ''~
have not changed for some time. Whea'
is quiet and easier; speculative ana spo'
values are lower. Feed Barley is easier
offerings are very light, particularly
bright, which would bring the top price
easily if it were here Oats are steady ano
unchanged Corn is advancing Tor potf
yellows and whites; to-day's receipts were
quite heavy, but it is steadily held at the
advance. Rye is quiet and weak aho
prices must be shaded to effect sales. NC
movement in Buckwheat.
Receipts were 292 chests Strawberries
and 100 boxes of Cherries, both OF WhlcT
ruled lower. There were only a lew boxes
of Gooseberries and about four drawers OF
Raspberries received. The Orange mar
ket is dragging and prices are weak; toe
much frozen stock here, and the weather
is against the sale of all kinds. lSlano
Bananas have been cleaned up Tor rev
days, but there will be a lot on the marker
tomorrow. No active movement IN MUS
Walnuts and Peanuts are firm
Butter continues steady; no lndlcauon
of an immediate change in prices Cheese
is weak under increasing supplies Eggs
are easy, and the majority go at l4c, puy-
ers are holding off for lower prices. MOI
a great many Eastern here now, put there
are two or three carloads on the way.
