WHEAT LOWER, BOTH ON AND
OFF CALL.
Barley Higher forz Spot and Flu.
tures-No Change in, Either
Oats or Germ.

San Francisco, August 22d
Wheat is lower, both on and off CALL
both Eastern and foreign markets are
lower and slumpy; to-day's arrivals were
light Barley took an opposite course
to wheat to-day; futures opened higher
and spot feed sold at an advance; small
| arrivals. No changes in oats; trading is
still confined to immediate wants, and
fancy continues scarce. Corn Is un-
changed; market is quiet.
Hay is firm, though buyers are not over
anxious; a sale of wheat hay was made
at $1S to-day; the market has an upward
tendency. Straw is weak under free ar
rivals.
Isabella grapes from the Santa Cruz
Mountains brought good prices. Some
berries arrived late and sold hover No.
l green pears in bulk are, doing better,
while the No. 2 ripe stock IS not wanted.
| Few bulk peaches offering to-day. Lem
ons are lower; in the past two days 1900
cases have been received. Lines hold
up, the market being nearly bare. The
market is again supplied with bananas,
| 1900 punches having come on the steam
| er: few cases Of pineapplesl arrived also.
| An advance is noted for fancy cream
cry butter; there is no strictly fancy dairy
| coming. Cheese is unchanged. Eggs are
| hard to move, and prices have a lower
tendency; the, only inquiry is for Eastern.
