tiOns-0OOd Demand for oats
and Prices Firm.
San Francisco, Nov. 2Sth.

Although the Chicago market Is "eaAei'
the local Wheat market remains qui'e
steady at about previous prices futures
made slight gains, but subsequently len
eff. Export business has been quite ac
tive this month and good showing wiii
result at the moment, though, II is quiet.
Barley is quite firm at the aoVanceo
prices; options took quite jump TINS
morning, going up to 81 for May. Iooo
demand for Oats supply limited ana prices
firm as previously quoted. corn Is III Lar
demand but there is too much mere 10
allow of improved prices with the present
limited demand.
The cold weather interferes with Fruit
sales, and as a consequence the market Is
slow to-day There were but chests OF
Berries in, but they find slow sale. Apples
and Grapes are neglected and market quite
weak, with liberal stocks of both on hand;
over 12O0 boxes of Grapes arrived to-day.
A few crates of Isabella Grapes are still
SEEN No Muscats or Tokays in market.
Fair sale for Navel Oranges, but rather
slow on Seedlings; one car OF Navels In to-
day. Several cars Of Eastern Apples ar
rived to-day.
The prevailing feeling in Butter is easier.
although quotations remain undisturbed;
stocks are somewhat in excess or demand.
Cheese continues firm at previous prices
"A weakening tendency in Eggs is notice
able; Ranch are lower; Store Eggs are now
coming forward a little more freely and
are in fair demand; Eggs in storage are
rapidly being withdrawn, and by Janu-
ary there will be scarcely any stored.
