DECLINE IN PRICE OF WHEAT
FUTURES.
Milling Firmly Held, Particularly
For Anything Choice-Barley
Higher For Spot Feed.

San Francisco Aprll 3uth
Wheat is lower: futures declined and
| there is an easier feeling in spot goods
Milling Wheat is firmly held, particularly
for anything choice. Barley is higher for
spot feed and steady for options; the mar
| ket is not active. There was fair trading
in Oats to-day at previous figures. Corn
is firm: the only California Corn here IS
Small Yellow and some White: the Large
Yellow is mostly Eastern; in bulk Eastern
| Corn is worth 81 O21aQ1 o71a.
Bran is lower The Hay market is about
in previous condition. Straw is higher.
Receipts of Strawberries were AIS chests
and of Cherries So boxes. A lot Of Black
Cherries of poor quality were carried over
from yesterday and offer at less than our
figures; if growers would send good Cher
ries to this market instead of the cuttings
of Eastern shipments they would probably
get better returns. Some Strawberries ar
rived late by freight and sold lower.
Butter is accommodating and the market
is lower. Cheese has weakened, and prices
have declined. The Egg market is well
supplied; some dealers quote higher than
our top price for ranch.
