SPOT WHEAT UNCHANGED-FU-
TURES LOWER.
Barley Firmly Held at Quoted Fig
uresOats Quiet, With High
er Tendency.

San Francisco, Feb. 18th
Spot wheat is unchanged and very little
changing hands; offerings are light; flu
lures are lower; Chicago declined to-
day, but the local market is not seriously
affected thereby. No changes in spot bar
ley; offerings still consist of dark grades; ;
all is firmly held at quoted prices; an
easier tone in options. In oats the mar
ket is still quiet, but there seems more
disposition to do business; buyers stock
ed up heavily some time ago, and these
stocks are now running low; a few days
more will no doubt see the market more
active; milling are scarce and higher
Corn is held at higher figures.
Hay is firm; not much arrived to-day
Smaller receipts of bran and middlings
to-day.
The demand for apples has fallen off
and prices are weak. Lemons are lower
Sock kanc are auction a ae IN Of light
anges and lemons netted fair returns.
No public sale was held to-day by the
Exchange, no fruit having been received.
Butter is off a fraction and the market
is rather easy; supplies of all grades are
ample. Store eggs have become. steadier
under a better demand; ranch, however
are still hanging.
