San Francisco. March oath.

| Wheat had firmer tone to-day. At the
call board prices had fair advance In
sympathy with a sharp rise in the Chi
cago market. Spot Wheat unchanged,
but steady with a little more inquiry
from shippers Barley on call had sharp
| little advance. Spot market dull and I'M
changed. Oats quiet and some kinds quot
ed lower
AS the rain continues there is no mar
ket for Hay. Quotations wholly nominal,
| nothing doing to base prices upon In
the meantime stocks of Hay are accumu-
prices Middlings steady through scar
city. Limas again declined. Pink shade
lower Other Beans unchanged. Tone OF
the market weak; business quiet
Potatoes quiet and fairly steady at the
previous quotations. No material change
in the market is looked for until the ar
Onions continue to be well maintained,
owing to the light receipts. Rain contin-
ued to make a dull market for miscel-
laneous vegetables this morning. Aspara-
gus market was easier. Arrivals of Green
Peas were extremely light; prices were
firmer. Choice Tomatoes scarce.
