San Francisco, Nov. 18th.
The present flour quotations have ruled
for some time and there seems no proba-
bility of an immediate change. During
the past few days wheat has shown more
strength, but to-day the market is easier;
the Chicago market is reported dull and
easier; futures locally were lower; re-
ceipts are light. Barley is unchanged for
spot feed, and the market is not very ac-
tive; some barley for March delivery sold
to-day at $1.32 During the week the oat
market has been fairly active; receipts
have been ample for all needs; holders are
not shading and the market is reported in
good shape. There has mott been much
trading in corn on which to base quo
tationS; during the past few days the
receipts have been light.
There have been no quotable changes
in hay although sales have been made
above our figures; the continued light re-
ceipts have strengthened the market
active Heavy arrivals of bran have
weakened the market and prices were
lower. Middlings have ruled firm at
Lady apples are on the market at $1.5o
per box. There is not much variety in
the fruit market nowadays. Apples and
pears constitute the bulk Of the offerings
Grapes have become very scarce and viii
soon disappear; some brought more than
our figures Apples sell we'll; there are a
lot OF oso9 NeW ae fbppes baHe
ed during the week, but they. do not find
ready sale, being green and rather small.
Lines and lemons u,r ruled rat1er satis weak. I
Nuts are more active and prices have inn
proved during the week.
