There was no Orange auction, as there was
not enough fresh • stock available. In the
open market Oranges and other Citrus fruits
cut but little figure, as the cool, cloudy
weather restricted trarte and dealers were busy
with deciduous fruits.
The fruit market had an easy tone, as local
trading was quiet, as usual on Friday, and
the call for shipping was limited to small
purchases of well-colored lots of early de
ciduous fruits, supplies of which were more
than sufficient fcr the demand. Cherries and
Gooseberries were firm at Improved values, as
stocks of both are steadily decreasing, but all
other descriptions were easy, with prices tend
ing downward. Th« canners were offering
54c p*r pound for Royal Anne Cherries, but
were unable to procure them, as the distillers
were paying 6c for surplus iots. Currants met
with a sluggish demand and were weaktr, as
receipts were liberal and the carrv-over from
the preceding day was large. All kinds of
berries were In good supply and prices were
lower all arcund. as a large portion of the
receipts, particularly of Strawberries, were of
poor quality and i the demand *vas nothing
extra.

I The buying was believed to be In the nature
; of supi'ortlr.g orders, but it served to relieve
. th» anxiety lect new financial plans should
break the Southern Pacific and thus hurt the
market. Sharp decline; in the Metropolitan
group of street railway stock* were a depress

very favorable, but was disregarded. So were
the report* of heavy sales of copper, both for
domestic and expert. The money market was

down 1H late in the day, but vigorous sup

CHICAGO. June 17.— Prospects of a free
movement from the farms in the near future
had much to do with producing a weak un
dertone in wheat to-day. At the close July
wheat was down H©V»c. Corn is off %@i£c.
Oats shtw a loss of %@'%c and provisions a
shade to "He. • '.-•
Steady cables and a big decrease In Argentine
shipments caused a fair degree of firmness
in wheat at the start. Opening quotations tor
July were unchanged to He higber at MVitf
S4*ic. The: market .soon lost Its initial
strength, however, on selling by pit trailers
ani commission houtes. The greater part of
thf trading was In the Septtmber delivery.
Offerings were much in excess of the demand
and as a result prices started downward. The'
cliler cause of the early selling was excellent
weather conditions throughout the greater part
of the country. There were also numerous
bearish crop reports. Canadian dinpatches as
serted that crops had made fine progress dur
ing the past week and that the acreage w.ll
be 9\4 per cent more than for 1003.- Equally
bearish news regarding spring wheat In Min
nesota and the Dakotas was ' received from
Minneapolis, reports from a thousand inquiries
sent out from that city showing a somewhat
larger acreage than last year. In connection
with harvecting operation* in the Southwest
a St. Louis trade paper claimed that Indica
tions point to a satisfactory yield with quality
generally good. Talk about new 'wheat com
ing on the market was played to advantage
a* a bear card. The weakness of the Sep
tember and December options at Mlnnsapolls
also had a depressing influence on the market
hen* late In the day. *A fair recovery . was
made In July during the last half hour on
covering' by shorts. . After selling down to
S-'%©KJ?*c that delivery closed at S4&S41&C.
September ranged between 70^e79V4c and
?'J~,*c, closing at 7SH4t?79ttc.- *
Sentiment in the corn market early In the
day was somewhat unsettled, but as the ces
rlon advanced the tone became quite ; weak
as a result of heavy selling of July by a prom
inent commission houte. July opened a shade
to JSc lower at 4S^,©4$\c. sold between 4Sc
and 49<! and closed at 48-Hc. . • ••¦
Oatg w*re affected by the weakness of corn
and by an official . report- showing increased
acreage in Canada. - After opening ?ie lower
at 30 Vc July sold between 3>%c and 3VHC,
closing at 36*4??3S%c. .
In provisions there was enough realizing by
lecal longs to cause a reaction and a change
frum- strength to comparative weakness. Small
receipts of liogs and firm prices at the yards
were early bull far-tors. The market closed
near the bottom, with September pork down
5<g7Hc at $12 &0612 82%; lard was off 2^c
at $0 07 H. and ribs closed a shade lower at
$7 45. ; -

Mississippi Tomatoes are about cleaned up
and stocks of Mexican are steadily decreasing,
but the market is still overloaded with Los
Angeles stock, which is weak, and large lines
have to be carried over from day to day.
Asparagus is a little firmer, with the ctnncn
paying 5c per pcund for No. 2 and 5Hc for
No. 1. Offerings of String Beans consisted
chiefly of dried and tough stock, which
dragged, but fancy lots were firm at the top
rate and occasional sales of fine stock from
Haywards were reported at a slight advance.
Cucumbers continued to weaken under in
creasing receipts, but the other vegetables
shewed little change.
Receipts of new Potatoes were heavier than
usual, and although trade continued active
the market had an easier tone and prices
r&nged lower. The top quotation, for white
was extreme and obtained only for a few lota
of strictly fancy, which were keenly com
peted for by rival jobbers. $1 75 being the
top for the general market. Garnet Chiles
are arriving freely from the Mission district
and are in good request for shipping at the
quotations. Onion* are plentiful and steady
at unchanged rates.
