COMMERCIAL.

San Francisco, May 26th.
Wheat futures are very quiet and lower;
spot is unchanged; it is entirely nominal; !;
a part cargo was cleared yesterday for
South Africa. Flour has remained un-
changed for long time; export business
is fairly active. Barley is quiet and lower
for spot feed occasional sales of brewing
to local brewers, but for export there is
nothing doing. Oats have been dull for
some time, and prices have had no op-
portunity of either advancing or declin-
ing Large yellow corn has been in ample
supply, but small is scarce; market has
been rather quiet. A quantity of rye goes
to South Africa; local wants are few and
prices remain pretty much in one groove
Receipts We're 600 chests of strawberries,
5.O34 boxes of cherries and lis boxes of
apricots Royal Anne cherries from Va
caville brought S5c per box. Some soft
strawberries. both large and small, sold
below the inside quotations. Other ber-
ries are lower Packed cherries are lower
but loose hold up. Apricots arrive more
In butter the supply and demand at
present are better balanced than they
have been of late; fancy dairies are
steady. Cheese is somewhat firmer. and is
fractionally advanced. Eggs are slow OF
sale for all except fancy ranch; some
houses quote as low as lie for store; re-
ceiptS OF Eastern heep lile Aati"C StoSh
