Pine old wheat has been In detnand at Antwerp and has
exhibited a better tendency. At Amsterdam there has
been no great amount of business passing in disposable
wheat ; tran-actions for future delivery have exhibited a
Blight fall. The tendency In flour at Pads has been rather
hoary. Wheats of common.° have been rather sparingly
offered at Paris, but the milling trade has exhibited little
Werner. to make purchases. linen the whole, trans-
arthme have been dull and sluexidt. At Hamburg, dis-
ponible wheat has been feeble, hut transactions for future
delivery have exhibited an upward tendency. Wheat has
remained almost without change at Dantzic. Wheat has
also sustained former quotations at Konigsberg.
