We had a very moderate show of English wheat here to-
day coastwise and by land carriage. lielected samples "
were in fair request at prices equal to Monday. inferior
kinds moved off heavily, on former terms.
Foreign wheat—the supply of which was moderately
good—sold slowly ; nevertheless previous rates were sup-

,
r
-
poted.
Floating cargoes of grain were steady in price. The
transactions In them, however, were by no means exten-
sive.
We were well supplied with both English ard foreign
barley. Malting qualities were held at full quotations,
otherwise the trade was rather heavy.
The sale for malt was moderately firm, at late rates.

The sale for pima was steady, at late rates.
Roth English and foreign flour was very ire ctive. In
