+ Choice Old Feed Firmly
Held.
San Francisco June 18th
Wheat on cali had a sharp advance
and speculation was active. in full sympa-
thy with a sharp rise in Chicago. The lo-
cal spot market was firmly held but quiet,
alton sufficiently strong to warrant paying
an advance. The Chicago market opened
firm on better foreign advices.
Barley on call recovered little and the
spot market was steady but quiet. Choice
old feed is being taken for brewing, and is
more firmly held New Feed is offered
to arrive at 95c. Receipts were 1,465 CEN
tails, including lis Rolled Barley. Oats
were quiet, but steadily held. Receipts
were only 30 centals. Corn was firm. Re-
ceipts were 200 centals Eastern.
Receipts of Hay to-day were larger,
amounting to ATT tons. New Hay was in
good demand and rather frmer. Old Hay
is unchanged. Receipts OF Bran We're go
sacks, and of Middlings $50 sacks. The de-
mand for both is lighter and prices are
easy. Oilcake meal is steady at the re-
cent advance
There was brisk shipping demand for
good hard Cherries. Apricots. PIums,
Peaches and Apples for the Victoria
steamer this morning, and prices for such
We're more firmly maintained. Soft fruits
continued weak. Basket Peaches, from
the river, were in heavy supply, and those
in over ripe condition went very low on
the wharf. Strawberries continued duh
at previous prices, other berries, and
among buyers Raspberries in crates were
steady but chest lots We're weaker. Black
berries continued to arrive freely, and
10 or oil
Gooseberries and Logan Berries were
scarce. Currants continued in good de-
mand at firm prices. Extra fancy sold at
seedless Grapes from Yuma are being re-
ceived right along and prices were lower.
There is little demand for Green Al
mCnds. Citrus fruits of all kinds We're
firm. Pineapples were abundant and easy.
The Butter market continues to have
weak undertone, and sellers find 1t more
difficult to obtain the top prices. Cheese
remains weak. Eggs are fairly steady
