WHEAT MARKET AT SAN FRAN
CISCO INACTIVE.
Feed Barley Firm, Though Rather
Quiet-No Changes in Oats,
Trading Being Slow.
San Francisco. Oct. 2sth.

The Chicago wheat market is still
shaping it's own course, independent of
outside influences; locally the market
does not respond, owing to low cables
and high freights futures are inactive.
No further advance in barley; feed is
firm though rather quiet. No changes
in oats; trading is still slow; receipts
to-day were light. Corn is weak large
yellow is lower. Rye is very dull.
Berries are weak; receipts are heavier
than the demand. Grapes are weak,
both for wine and table varieties: re-
ceipts are too heavy. Trade in general
is slow. New walnuts are selling well.
Mexican lines are weak; market is well
stocked. Fresh arrivals of bananas and
pineapples are on the market.
No quotable changes in dairy produce
TO report. There is no surplus of fancy
butter, but of medium and lower grades
there is more than needed. The top price
on ranch eggs is not readily paid but
the fancy article is scarce and dealers
hold out for the price, and occasionally
higher.
