ALL KINDS OF GRAIN ARE
HIGHER.
Wheat Being Held for More Than
quoted Figures, and Market
Active and Feverish.

San Francisco, April 9Th.
The dry weather is playing havoc with
the Grain market, both speculative and
spot. Wheat, Barley, Oats, Corn and
Rye are all higher. Wheat is being held
for more than our figures; futures made
gains of several cents, and the market is
very active and feverish. Barley. op-
tions also made long jumps and business
was quite active. Oats are strong; the
advance is not so marked as in other
grains, owing to the fact that the sup
ply is more ample and consumers are
fairly we'll stocked up, and receipts are
not light.
Hay is higher for the medium grades;
the market is quite firm all through. Corn
products and Rolled Barley are marked
up. Bran and Middlings are very firm,
and prices have an advancing tendency.
Oranges move a little better, but with
the market overstocked as it is there can
be no Improvement in prices; three cars
Will be offered at auction next Tuesday.
M MeSIcan Sa6 Lines are very dull; fresh lot
OF Strawberries was rather larger and
prices dropped; a few hot-house Berries
brought SOC basket. -
Creamery Butter is not moving we'll
at the top figure; dairy is quite steady
Eggs are easy though not auotabiy
lower.
