Wheat and Other Grains. WHEAT—The foreign markets showed little change. The weather continued the sole feature in the Chicago market, which was active and un- settled at a decline of 1itc, owing to scattered but continuous rains over the Southewest, with possible showers predicted for to-day. These rains, while light, are sufficiently numerous and contiuuous to break the market, though they were partially offset yesterday by general frosts in the Central West and killing frosts | in Ohjo. There was a big trade at the decline, @and though strong parties bought at the open- ing the market could not immediately absorb the enormous selling. The Southwest, led by St. Louis, were heavy sellers, then turned equally heavy buyers. Kansas City bought back all the wheat sold early. Minneapolis reported that stocks there would decrease G00,- 000 bushels for the week. This market sympathized with Chicago and declined on call, ‘but shipping grades remained unchanged. Freights were firmer, a ship being chartered /at 20s, usual options, with 27s 6d quoted for new crop loading Iy August and 285 6d In September and October.

Poultry and Game. No more Eastern Poultry was placed on the market, but there were a great many Hens offering, which were carried over from the pre- vious day. Receipts of Californian were mod- erate and young stock was in fair demand. Old Roosters and Hens were plentiful and dull. There were no changes in Game. Twenty- three sacks came in.

Recelvers of Butter are in a quandary. New York and Chicago were both 134¢ lower yester- day and’the Seattle market reported a decline of 2c, with Portland delivering Butter there at 20c. These figures cut San Francisco out of the shipping proposition, and as the Butter keeps coming in right along the local handlers are perplexed as to how to dispose of it, especlal- ly as they are afraid to pack it at current quo- tations. There is nothing new in Cheese. The market is liberally supplied. While the recent improvement in ranch Eggs is maintained the general market fis rather weak than otherwise, as supplies are large and some dealers are heavily overstocked. What cannot be sold is stored, and the surplus is thus taken care of for the moment, but it will protably be heard from along in the fall.

Cholce offerings of Strawberries met with ready sale at the quotations, but some very green stock was sold for $9 chest. Receipts were 45 chests and 72 crates. Small sizes of fancy Oranges continued to et with a steady Inquiry and were rather scarce, but large sizes were in excessive sup- ply and dull. There was very little demand for Lemons, the weather being against thelr sale. One car came in and the market is over- stocked. Five cars of Oranges will be auc- tioned to-day. ‘The other fruits stood about the same.
