FLOUR CONTINUES FIRM AND
ACTIVE.
Another Rise in the Wheat Market
Both Milling and Shipping
Grades Are Higher.

Flour is quite firm and active; no
changes. although wheat is higher. An
other rise in wheat values and the mar
ket is firm; both milling and shipping
grades are higher; futures have followed
the course of Chicago. which is higher
Oats are quiet, though prices are well
sustained. Yellow corn is still scarce and
wanted. Rye is firm at the previous
price. Barley is firm and advanced in
price for feed; options are higher.
Not many strawberries came in to-day,
and prices are a trifie higher. Peaches
doing better. Red nectarines. which
have heretofore brought fair prices, are
weaker. Buyers will not pay large prices
for the bulk of the fruit sent here. as it
Is not choice. Grapes are not wanted at
all.
The butter market seems to be stronger.
although some houses are pretty we'll
stocked up. Eggs, too, are firm; sales OF
ranch at 24c.
