SPOT WHEAT UNCHANGED, BUT
VALUES SOFT.
Little Doing in Barley-Oats Quiet
at Previous Figures-Receipts
in Excess of Demand.
San Francisco. Oct. 18th.

San Francisco, Oct 18th.
Spot wheat is unchanged, but values
are soft, shippers being slow to pay the
figures; futures dropped, in sympathy
with a decline at Chicago. No changes
in barley; little doing in either spot or
options; a full and part cargo are
down from Port Costa for export. Oats
are quiet at unchanged prices; receipts
arc in excess of the demand. Only
large yellow corn is offering in quanti-
ty; slow demand: prices as before. Rye
is a trifie lower and is dull.
Fancy peaches bring a trihe more. Ap-
Piles are in large supply. Verdel grapes
sell we'll; some are still green; other ta-
BILE grapes, particularly Tokays, crowd
the market and carried over stock sells
for about any price. Mexican lines are
weak and are lower; fresh lot of over
400 cases is at hand.
New California cheese is higher. No
other changes TO report. Choice eggs
rule firm, with sales above our figures.
Butter is in more moderate supply
though there is ample for the demand
