WHEAT FUTURES LOWER
SPOT DULL.
Decline in Barley Quotations
Nothing New in Oats
Corn Easy.
San Francisco. July s0th.


Wheat futures were lower, but not ac
tive: spot is dull and unchanged the
Chicago market was lower for July and
steady on futures. Receipts of flour to-
day were over $4,000 quarters, nearly all
from Stockton for the China trade. Bar
ley is lower for both spot and futures.
Nothing new in oats; trading is of a
hand-to-mouth nature and prices do not
change. Corn is easy at previous prices.
Considerable hay arrived to-day, in
cluding four cars from Oregon and one
from Nevada: the market was rather
soft. Bran and middlings are easy at
unchanged prices.
The Sacramento River boat was very
late to-day, and fruit from that source
missed the days trade and prices were
uncertain. great deal of the fruit Of
fering was held-over stock. Berries are
higher.
There was quite lot of butter in by
the Humboldt steamer, and in the abb
sence of any Improvement in the local
demand the market was no better. Deal
ers talk all sorts of prices on ranch eggs,
sales being reported even higher than
our figures; store eggs do not improve IN
price and they continue dull
