AN ADVANCE IN BOTH SPOT AND
FUTURE WHEAT.
Nothing Doing in Barley, and Prices
Are Weak-Fair Demand
For Oats.
San Francisco. March 5th.

| FOf Oats.
| San Francisco March 5th.
Chicago Wheat is firmer, as is also the
local market; both spot and futures are ad-
vanced, though quiet. Not much spot Of
fering. and shippers buy very sparingly at
the quotations. Nothing doing in Barley
and prices are undisturbed, though weak;
| part cargo down from Port Costa for
| export. Fair demand for Oats; none in to-
! day; Surprise and Red Oats are scarce;
small sales of Fancy White made above
| the outside quotation. Corn is firm, in
good demand. and prices have again ad-
vanced. A cargo of 81, 900 centals Rye down
| from Port Costa for export
Very few Apples in to-day; prices have
advanced and the market is firm, though
not very active. Choice Oranges move we'll,
but ordinary grades drag; prices are un-
changed.
Prices throughout are undisturbed in
Dairy Produce and the markets are weak,
| except on store Eggs, which are steady
and in good demand. Ranch and store
| Eggs are now so close together, both in
quality and price, that one quotation will
suffice
| With the exception of Dressed Turkeys
and Young BOOSTERS there are no changes
! in prices. Not a great deal Offering. There
4
| will be four cars here next week. The
! small amount of game received brought
! better prices.
