San Francisco, Aug. 2Ith.
Wheat is steady, though quiet at pre-
vious figures; 9S94c is a full Inquire lot
choice shipping. Barley changes hahus
slowly and quotations are unchanged.
Trading in Oats is very light; market
steady at previous prices; none arrived
to-day. No Corn was received; the market
IS inactive and prices are weak
Bellfower Apples have appeared in mar
ket; good Gravensteins for shipping move
well, but the trade generally does not take
hold Pears and Peaches are arriving less
freely and prices have an upward ten
dency Freestone Peaches are not wanted
by the Gamers; they are buying Clings at
the quotations. The Prunes referred TO
yesterday as being firm are the variety
known as the Fellenburg; common German
Prunes are plentiful and dragging; Dam
son Plums are scarce, also Cages. Inc
Melon market is still over-supplied.
Grapes are more plentiful, but they are
somewhat ripper than they have been, eS-
p6cially the white variety, ana move pet
ter, although prices are not improved
There is a firmer tone to the fancy But
ter market; medium and common grades
are only fairly steady; prices show no
change; the run on packed Butter Is sun
rather light. Cheese appears to be accum-
Glatln2. the market Is DOt dS SIlOii6 as -
has been, but prices have not declined
There is a better feeling in ranch Eggs,
but store lots are weak; good ranch at the
TOD figures are wanted in preference TO
store at much lower figures; opinions are
that Eggs will do better shortly
