SAN FRANCISCO WHEAT MAR
KET WEAKER.
Barley Firmly Held at the Ad-
vanced Prices-Brewing and
Bright Feed Scarce.
San Francisco. Jan. I'D.

San rIdliSlStO, JAN --i
Notwithstanding an advance at Chicago
the local speculative market is weaker,
spot is steady at unchanged prices; car
go down from Port Costa to-day Tor South
Africa Barley is firmly held al the adj
vanced prices; brewing is rather scarce;
as is also bright feed. Oats are steady;
the market is in good shape and dealers
are not making concessions. No changes
in Corn; supply is ample; demand is
lighter.
Hay rules firm at the advance; no furth-
er changes. Mill products. generally, are
firm. and prices have an upward tendency.
The Panama steamer brought fresh
lot of Lines. Cranberries are lower in
| boxes. There has been a better tone TO
the Apple market during the past few
days The local health officers are con-
demning frozen Oanges in a small way;
better move would be for the State author
tiles to condemn the fruit before Il is
shipped, and thus save expense to the
grower
Butter is steadier; stocks are moving off
better and there is more disposition TO
buy all around. Eggs are still on the de-
cline, and until retailers can sell inside
of % eents the market will probably con-
tnue to drop; a few cheap Eastern Eggs
that are still here also affect the sale OF
domestic stock.
