The New York journal of Commerce OF Friday,
Tbere 10 much anxiety felt here among grain and
flour Dealers In regard to the probable demand for
breadstutfs from France Last year, when it was
known that purchases was making here on French
account, our market rapidly improved until trade was
desnged and persons in thu interior who were pl+c
ing great reliance upon the upward movement, met
with severe los.ea. We should regret any SIMILAR
course of prices this year. for 1t could only lead to
worse disappointment, with sill more disast Gus
suit But there can be no question but France will
want largely of onr breadstuHs. Her own crop is
again deficient, while the supply from the Black Sea
cannot be made available to any great extent and
Spain can furnish nothing Already there are clear,
snces here Lisbon, the Old crop being exhausted
aud the new unpromisug. This French demand
however should be locked a. calmly; 1t 10 no reason
why prices should advance. Our harvest Is so large
that but for some such outlet wheat and flour must
have gone down below redaunerating price. Az it
H. we look for yet for lower rates but the export
trade will prevent the bottom Of the market from
falling out. We still think the early sales will be the
best.
