SPECULATIVE WHEAT NARKE1
LOWER AND ACTIVE,
Barley Continues Quiet, the Quota
tiOnS for Feed Being the Extreme
Corn Steady-Oats Easy.
San Francisco. March 31st

San FRANCISCO, Mdfcn 5lSL.
Following a further decline at Chicago
the local speculative market is lower and
quite active. The market takes a wide
range, as to the views of buyers, of which
there are precious few. Barley continues
quiet; our top price for feed is extreme;
options are neglected and have an easier
tendency. A small lot of corn arrived, but
no oats. Corn is steady, but oats are easy
and quiet.
Apples are inactive Oranges are in fair
demand at quoted prices. Very slow sale
for grape fruit. Dried fruits are fairly
active for local use.
Although the butter market is weak
and unsettled there was no further decline
to-day. Eggs are easy; no change.
