SPOT WHEAT UNCHANGED
SHIPPERS OUT OF MARKET.
Barley Misunderstanding in Oats
Of Small Proportions and
Old Prices Stand.
San Francisco, Aug. 1lth


Wheat is unchanged: shippers are still
out of the market and quotations are
nominal; at Chicago futures opened lower,
September closed higher; the local spec
ulative market opened lower. Barley Is
inactive on local account; some inquiry
for feed from the country. Trading in
Oats is still of small proportions and the
old prices stand; to-day's receipts were
all from Washington. No changes in
Corn; no trade to speak Of; small arrivals
of Eastern.
The new Straw quoted yesterday at 40c
was a very poor lot; best Straw is higher.
The Hay market is in better shape; an
experimental car from Kansas City was
received to-day, and as IT can be landed
here quite cheaply .andGsis of good quail
ity it promises to cut some figure in the
Hay market. Bran is quite firm and has
an advancing tendency. eI
The market is still Crowded with Fruit,
particularly Peaches and Pears. AS soon
as the Gamers have worked off the large
relief Good sale for Watermelons, and
some extra large bring more than our fig
ure. Lemons are scarce; in fact the mar
there will be no more here until next
month. Isabella Grapes are selling at 50c
per basket.
