COMMERCIAL.
WHEAT MARKET FIRM, AND
HIGHER FOR SPOT.
Barley Quiet, and Prices Tending
Downward-No Change in
Dat Quotations.


no California Wheat offering in the sam
pie market; it is all northern Wheat;
early advices from Chicago were to the
effect that the market was firm on con-
tnued heavy export demand; December
opened at 651sc and closed at Size. Bar
ley is quiet and tending downward for
spot; liberal arrivals from the north. No
changes in Oats; the demand has eased
up for the time but prices are unchanged;
heavy arrivals. Nothing new in Corn;
none arrived to-day; no demand.
Hay is easy and some grades are lower,
receipts are not heavy; some arrived to-
day from Oregon, Washington and Ne
vada. Bran and Middlings rule quite
firm.
Trade is slack and prices are unsettled
in Fruits. 1t is a case OF dealers setting
the best prices they can. The market is
demoralized on Cantaloupes and Nutme9s.
Peaches make a poor showing; choice
stock would bring more than our top
prices. Good wine Grapes are scarce and
firm, while poor, moldy stock is coming
in freely and is hard to move. Few choice
Pears here.
The Butter market Isl easier; fresh stock
is neglected for packed goods; supply OF
all grades, except fancy Dairy, Is ample.
Eggs are easy on both Eastern and do
nestle
