San Francisco. June LIT

san FRANCISCO, June 18th.
Wheat has been quiet for some time at
about the quoted prices. Chicago reversed
the order of things to-day and showed a
decline; the local speculative market took
like course. Barley shows very little
life; plenty of new feed offering, but there
are no buyers; quotations have not
changed for some days. Oats are steady
though the market is dull; receipts have
been very light. Previous prices rule on
corn; small lots of Eastern come to hand
occasionally and help to keep prices from
advancing. Rye is very firm as quoted !;
100 tons will probably cover the amount of
old Rye unsold in the State; small lots of
new are offering.

are lower all around. Peaches are weaker
and Apricots are doing better. A great
many culled Peaches are dumped on this
market; for such stuff there is scarcely
any sale. The Plums sent here are still
too green; they would make good work for

Butter declined sharply during the week;
the market is much depressed and prices
are tending still lower; some dealers quote
lower than our figures. Cheese has re-
manned quite steady at prices quoted. The
Egg market is picking up on ranch, but
store show no Improvement; of common
Eggs there are more than enough here for
the demand.
