AN ADVANCE IN QUOTATIONS
IN THE WHEAT MARKET.
Choice Feed Barley Scarce-Inac-
tivity in Fruits, and Prices
Are Weak.
San Francisco. June 24th.

San Francisco June 24th.
Notwithstanding the recent decline in
Wheat there has been no drop in Flour.
Eastern Wheat markets are f1rmer, ana
local speculative values have also ad-
yanced: spot figures are unchanged; mar
ket still quiet. Barley shows an advance
for options, but spot is unchanged; choice
bright feed in scarce. Rye is easier for
new; liberal offerings and few buyers; old
is firm as quoted.
The wharves are well loaded with Fruit
and as the demand does not improve
prices must come down; there is, strictly
speaking, no market on the bulk of Fruits
now here. Dealers, one and all, complain
of the inactivity. Good Peaches and best
Cherries are about the only exceptions
they bring fair prices Oranges and Lem
ons are very weak. Mexican Lines are
becoming scarce; the next steamer is not
expected until the 1st proX.
A fractional decline in Butter; market
weak. Cheese steady and Eggs nrm, with
an advance for ranch.
