WHEAT WEAK, IN SYMPATHY
WITH EASTERN MARKETS.
An Easier Feeling for Bar1ey-Spot
Unchanged and Futures Irregu-
u1ar-Oats Active.
San Francisco Octob

San Francisco, October Sd.
Wheat is weak, in sympathy with weak
| er cables and lower market East; spot is
| unchanged; futures are lower. There is
an easier feeling for barley; spot is un-
| changed; futures are irregular; they
| opened lower, then sold higher and sub
sequently dropped back. Oats are active
and some quote better prices. No changes
| in corn; market is still quiet.
The only weakness in the hay market
| is for alfalfa; other grades are firm, and
| the rain has not affected the market al
all. Straw is firm. Large arrivals OF
| bran, but great deal of it is for export
| the market is weak, however. Middlings
are steady.
Berries were in light receipt; with more
rain the strawberry crop will be over
| Some demand for crate grapes for ship
| ping to the north. Figs are poor and
| move slowly. Cantaloupes are lower.
