SPOT WHEAT IS UNCHANGED
AND DULL.
Barley Steady-Plenty of Feed Of
fering, but 1t is of Medium
and Dark Grades.

=
ly features showed an improvement; spot
wheat is unchanged and dull, shippers re-
fusing to advance their prices. Barley is
steady: plenty of feed Offering but is
mostly of medium and dark grades; no
demand for brewing: options are very
much neglected. Trading in oats lately
has been of a handto-mouth character;
no change in prices. but the market is
weak. Very little corn in the sample mar
ket and there is no great call for il, either,
Rye is quiet at unchanged prices.
Grapes are again lower: wine grapes
| arrived more freely and prices dropped.
The demand is slow. Market continues
well supplied with apples, and they are
moving off none too well. Not much de-
mand for pears. Peaches will soon be
dropped from the list. Mexican lines are
abundant and the market is very weak.
Lemons are dull and lower
Butter continues steady; but there is no
scarcity the trade is running freely on
packed butter The high prices on
cheese have caused falling off in the de-
nand. Choice eggs are firm and ranch
occasionally bring more than our QUOTA
tions; they are scarce; plenty of Eastern
here.
