WHEAT ACTIVE FOR SPECULATE :
I'VE PURPOSES.
Barley is Stiffer for Bright Feed,
But Brewing is Quiet and
Unchanged.

San Francisco, Oct. 29tn
During the week flour has declined ooc
per barrel, in sympathy with the decline
in wheat Wheat to-day was quite actlve
for speculative purposes, but spot DUST
ness is quiet. AS, in the absence OF puy-
ers, spot quotations are governed iarsely
by call board values, the price OF dctuai
wheat is rather uncertain. Eurlhs lhe
week a cargo has left for Calculld, anu
another is ready to sail. Barley Is stiner
for bright feed but brewing IS quie. anu
unchanged. The market mas peen scdhliy
supplied with oats; trading is Ialriy acliVe
and prices steady. Large yellow coih 40
weak, but not lower, although during the
week it declined. Rye is quiet; not much
Offering and few buyers in the market.
Apples are weaker, if anything; in the
neighborhood Of $500 boxes came to hand
to-day and the demand is not very active.
There are a few Spitzenberg apples IN
market, but they are poor ana not mucn
wanted. In pears there is nothing dolng
to speak Of; not many good pears mere
the price Of the few that might be called
choice is too high to suit the ordinary
trade. Table grapes, except lsaDellaS,
have weakened; they brought Iairly gooo
terday were heavy and considerable had
TO be carried over; some extra choice
might bring more than 5Oc per bex, but
gone, anu the few crates here bring good
prices. Berries were light and sold Well;
Z demand has sprung up Tor raspperrleS.
The market is rather bare of wine grapes
and quotations are largely nominal; lew
Missions arrived to-day.
