BRADFORD TRADE REPORT, THURSDAY.-Trade at this
market has been in a fluctuating and uncertain state during the
past week. The exorbitant terms of peace shadowed forth by
the " Times " frightened operators, and the retire-
ment of Gambetta has again encuraged them. There
is still uncertainty enough in the situaVon to inspire
many with caution, but there are not wanting others bold
enough to speculate in wool. Transactions have not been large.
Staplers ask more money, and though they cannot establish a
further advance, it is difficult to buy at late rate 4. Hogs have
been rather more in favour, and skin wools sell freely. For
export yarns speculators are inquiring, and operating where
spinners will take old prices. They generally ask more, how-
ever, especially in single and two-fold forties. The piece
trade is rather better. A little has been done for France, and
Americans are again looking round
SOUTH STAFFORDSHIRE IRON TRADE, THURSDAY.-
There was a moderate attendance at the iron trade meeting to-
day. The rapid growth of anti-war feeling has recreated a
hopeful feeling throughout the trade. The recent mild weather
has made possible the opening up of the canal and communica-
tion to the works. Business is much brisker. The mills and
furnaces are working about two-thirds at present, but a greater
amount of activity immediately is anticipated. Pigs were
in good demand, and a fair trade was done in sheets, plates,
hoops and angles.

secondary, Bd. to 81d. ; middling, 61c1. to 71d. There was a full
supply of cattle. The average trade was slow, with little change
in price. The supply of sheep was considerably short, and
prices advanced about id. per lb.
BIRMINGHAM CORN MARKET, THURSDAY.-At this mar-
ket to-day there was a small supply of wheat, which sold slowly
at last week's rates. Barley was firm ; but for oats, beans, and
