cheaper. Barley and maize were heavy. There was no
English barley on the stands; but the supply of foreign

currency. Malt was tolerably firm in price, although
the inquiry for it was far from active. The supply was
moderate. Large @applies of cats changed hands, at
very full prices. The arrivals of foreign were seasonably
good. Bums and peas were quite ail dear as on Monday.
