WHEAT LOWER, AND SPOT
BUSINESS NOMINAL.
Barley Much Neglected in the Sam
pie Market-Future Trad
ing in Oats Limited.

Wheat is again lower and spot business
Is entirely nominal; futures are active at
the decline, following a drop at Chicago;
part cargo down from Port Costa for ex-
port. Barley is. like Wheat, much neg
lected in the sample market; futures are
quiet; over $1,000 eentals down from Port
Costa for Europe. Trading in Oats is linn
tied; previous prices rule. Fair demand
for Corn at the old prices; the East still
supplies the bulk of the Corn here.
Strawberries did better; receipts small:
few Raspberries brought soc per drawer.
Green Cages brought $40 per ton. Grapes
are in liberal supply and are weak. Fruit
in bulk is scarce. Ounces are coming in
more freely and are lower
Butter is weak and the market is tend
ing downward Eggs are easier; in small
way they bring more than our prices; they
are accommodating.
