Barley Quiet but Firm.

Easier Feeling Prevailed
Barley Quiet but Firm.
San Francisco, Oct 10th.
Lower speculative prices for Wheat in
Liverpool and Chicago to-day caused cor
responding weakness in the local call
board market, but trading here was not
active at the decline. The local spot
prices were unchanged, but there was an
easier feeling. The local Barley market
was quiet but firm. Receipts were light,
amounting to $3.50 centals. AS most OF
the choice Barley is being taken by ship
pers, the shorts are having some difficulty
in covering their contracts to advantage.
Oats We're quiet and firm for white. Re-
ceipts We're only 220 centals. Corn was
dull. Receipts were go centals. Prices
were nominal.
Hay quiet. Bran and Middlings firm.
Bean market prices have been Well sus-
tained with the exception of pink. Large
and Small White have advanced
Common Apples are very abundant, but
Apples were firm Wine Grapes firm. Can
teloupes and Nutmegs sold easier Choice
Peaches and Bartlett Pears were very
scarce and firm. Mexican Lines lower
| Potato market unchanged. Sweet Pota-
toes at, easy prices. Onion prices con-
tlnued heavy strictly choice Tomatoes
inferior stock Most kinds Of summer

Butter firm. Cheese steady. Eggs are
| firm
California Poultry was duh and gener-
ally weaker owing to plentiful supplies
