WHEAT STEADY AT UNCHANGED
QUOTATIONS.
Barley Options Lower, But Spot
Goods Hold Up-OatS Are
Quiet.
San Francisco, Jan. 18th.

Wheat is steady at unchanged prices
futures are very dull a part cargo is down
| from Port Costa for export. Flour re-
ceipts amounted to $500 barrels of which
$500 are from Port Costa for export Bar
| ley options are lower, but spot goods hold
| up. Oats are quieta though prices are
steady as previously quoted. Fair trading
| in Corn at the quotations. Rye is, and has
been, very quiet. Very little call for Buck
| wheat and quotations are nominal.
| Since the beginning of the Orange sea-
son the market has not been what might
be called active and strong. Were it not
| for the average light receipts prices would
| be lower than quoted. AS it is stocks on
| hand keep slightly in excess of the de-
mand Strict fancy bring more than
| outside figures. Apples are weak in price
and moving slowly; the Eastern stock in
barrels hurts the trade in boxes. Persim-
mons are no longer quoted; the poor stock
! offering is not wanted.
| Butter, with the exception of Humboldt
specials, is weak, and stocks seem to be
accommodating. On Cheese some dealers
| quote lower than our top figures; the mar
| ket is weak, with a downward tendency in
| prices. On Eggs the disposition is TO sell,
| even if concessions must be made; the in
creasing receipts of California Eggs and
| the arrival of several cars of Eastern make
| Eggs a poor article to hold.
