THE WHEAT MARKET QUIET
AND STEADY.
Barley Firmly Held at the Quota
tions-Not Much Doing in
Oats-Corn Unchanged.
San Francisco, Dec. &c


Wheat is quiet and steady; Chicago fu-
lures opened stronger, but fell back later
the local speculative market opened low
er. Barley is firmly held at the quota
tions; options have advanced during the
past few days. Not much doing in Oats
no further changes in prices. Corn is un-
changed; fair demand to-day, but not
enough to affect quotations. Rye is lowef
in the absence of demand.
Nothing new in Fruits. All kinds move
slowly, buyers taking just enough for the
days business. Not many Grapes here
but there are not many wanted. Citrus
Fruits are dull and in ample supply Nuts
are fairly active.
Creamery Butter has further declined
under free arrivals; market is weak except
for special marks. Cheese is weakening
Eggs are lower under increasing supplies
and pressure to sell; as usual on fail-
ing market. buyers hold off for still lower
prices
