San Francisco, Nov. 4th.
Ihe rising Wheat market has strength
ened Flour, and an advance Of 25c per
barrel is noted.
Wheat is still rising and both spot and
speculative values are higher. May
"heat this morning showed an advance
OF over &c on Mondays best prices. Trans
actions in the December option were small,
out showed a &c advance on the morning s.
business. No new developments in the
indian Wheat line, but there has consid-
erable Of a demand sprung up from Aus
tralia Feed Barley is firm and scarce;
holders ask s71ac for bright feed; options
are very quiet. Large Yellow Corn is
sitter; very little Small Yellow offering;
small lots are arriving from Ogden.
Fancy Bellflower Apples appear firmer,
though not quotably higher; few bring
$50. There is no great demand for any
thing in particular. Receipts of Berries
were quite heavy for this season of year.
being nearly 80 chests; they are still sandy
and soft; the cool weather is also against
their sale The market is still deluged
with table Grapes, and not in the best con-
dttion, either; it must be something very
fine to bring over 40c per box Canta-
loupes and Nutmegs are very poor and
not wanted. There have been very feW
good Pomegranates in market this season.
Lines and Lemons are quite dull. No
Island Bananas here at the moment;
steamer is expected to-day.
Some fancy Butter brings more than top
quotations, but the general feeling Is weak.
Eggs are moving slowly, and while quo
tations are not actually lower, the tone Of
the market is easier; not many California
Eggs here. but plenty Of Eastern
Produce Quotations.
