COMMERCIAL,
WHEAT FURTHER DECLINED
AND MARKET WEAK.
An Easier Feeling Prevails in Barley
and Feed Is LOwer-Oats
Are Firm.

market is weak and quiet An easier
Ieehng prevails in Barley and Feed Is
ioWer. Oats are firm; receipts and offer
'nks are light and demand likewise Corn
AS Gull; no demand and liberal offerings.
Apples are bringing more money for
fancy stock: receipts of common are lib
eral, but there are not many fancy here.
Aongworth Strawberries are almost too
scarce to be Quotable; only few chests
arrive daily; Blacks are also lighter; the
large Strawberries still arrive in soft
condition. Watermelons are in large sup
ply. and the demand is not as quick as
would be expected; yesterdays receipts
were nine cars being five from Winters
and four from Lodi. Good Peaches and
Plums move better and the supply is
more moderate.
Potatoes are steady, except Sweets,
which are weak. Onions are in ample
supply and rather weak. Tomatoes find
very slow sale; receipts are not SO heavy,
though still too heavy, apparently, for the
demand. Sack Corn is doing better, but
sales are not brisk.
Butter remains quite firm, with the ten
uency toward higher prices for the fresh
article; best Dairy Butter shows an ad-
vance, and some dealers quote even higher
than our outside price a strictly fancy
Ranch Egg moves, but for other kinds
there is slow sale.
