WHEAT MARKET WEAK AND
QUOTATIONS LOWER.
Barley Scarce, in Light Receipt,
and Spot Higher for Both
Feed and Brewing.
San Francisco, Nov. Sd.


Wheat is weak and lower following a
decline at Chicago; locally futures are
lower and not active. Barley is scarce,
in light receipt, and spot higher for both
feed and brewing; the car sent from Ne
braska did not turn out well, and no more
will be sent here. Oats are firm and ac
tive at the advance. Corn is firm and
higher, in sympathy with the Eastern
market arrivals are small
Hay is unchanged; the market Is still
dull and were it not for the small receipts
prices would probably decline; consumers
are running on stocks previously laid in.
No changes in bran and middlings.
Table grapes move slowly, excepting
Muscat in open boxes. Wine grapes are
disappearing. There is a fair call for Bell
at present. Good-sized lemons are want
ed A few figs are offering at S5cQ$1 for
black and 30q75c for white Some changes
appear in nuts; not much activity as yet.
Fresh butter is lower and the market is
again sluggish; dealers have TO shade to
DO business Cheese and mes eggs ar are uns un-
Produce Quotations.
