CISCO FAIRLY ACTIVE.
Barley Firm for Bright Feed
Which Is Very Scarce-Oat
Market Weak.

San Francisco, Nov I'd.
During the week spot Wheat has ranged
pretty much at present quotations; the
market is fairly active; futures have been
rather slow. and have wobbled back and
forth, following the course of Chicago; ex-
port business is active. Barley is firm for
bright feed, which is very scarce and
would probably bring more than quota
tions; the demand for other grades is slow;
futures have been neglected of late; a few
sales were made to-day at lower prices.
Oat market has been weak; supplies are
been tending downward Corn is weak;
trading is slow not much white Offering.

strictly choice stock, free OF worms and
scales, will bring the outside quotation
Berries are not in demand; the weather is
getting too cold and the Ferries come in
sandy; prices are lower. Wine Grapes are
have been satisfied and there are still a lot
to come: the outlook is not good for the
remainder of the crop. Ripe Persimmons
bring the top price; there are lot of
green ones offering only good ounces
find buyers; poor stock is not wanted.
New Walnuts are in demand; other Nuts
There have been no material changes in
dairy products for some days. On Butter
the supply slightly exceeds the demand ;
the market is steady. Packed Butter is
moving off well. The high prices of Cheese
have eased up the demand and buyers are
taking only for immediate wants Fancy
Eggs rule firm: such are scarce; in some
cases Eastern are taken instead Of Cali
fornia, the quality being nearly alike.
