Barley Steady, Though Rather Quieu-
Oats Remain Unchanged. VIII
Trading Light.
san rrancisco. April 18TH.


Port Costa for export. Oats remained uh-
changed, with trading light and connned
to local uses; over 5000 centals IN from
Oregon to-day. Corn is still oull' previous
prices prevail Rye is easy.
Receipts were 656 boxes of Asparagus,
AL boxes of Rhubarb, SIT sacks of Peas
and 524 sacks of New Potatoes. Potatoes
are firm for old varieties. onion supply Is
light and demand good. New POTATOES
are dragging. Asparagus is tHne
weaker A few Peas bring 219c, but the
majority go at the quotation Rhuparp
receipts were lighter, but the demand has
fallen off; some sells under the inside quo
tation. The Mexican steamer brought
Il boxes of Tomatoes.
Berries are weaker, especially 1or tne

Lines, which are firm at the quotations,
$50 boxes arrived. Another car OF bananas
from New Orleans is due here In couple
of days; at present there are none put
Island Bananas here. There are very few
PineappleS in marke; not enough 10 speak
Of Dried Fruits are in a tranquil state,
with prices previously quoted. Nuts
are practically at standstill. The first
Cherries for this market have appeared,
and offer at S1Q1 20 per box, without
buyer; the fruit is not much account:
Butter shows no changes, but then Mon
day is an off day; It is more than probable
that tomorrow will show another decline.
Eggs are still firm and rather scarce;
ranch are fraction higher for the best; a
few sales of store reported above the top
figures; the chances are that the market
will weaken; the present firmnesS is be-
lieved to be only temporary.
