Flour, Grain, Sc.
Flour and NeaI-The foreign news has had
little or no effect on the market; the expert
demand for Flour continues limited, but with
a continued falling off in the receipts and a
reduced stock on sale, holders are firmer in
their views and not anxious sellers at preyi-
ous quoted rates. The weeks sales reach
about 1000 bbls, mostly at sc p bbl for STAN
dard superine, including 500 bbls deliverable
in month at the same rate; 1000 bbls, extra,
in lots, at Sc 25(G6 so, according to brand,
and 2O0O bbls, mostly straight superfne, ta-
ken to-day, also at Sc q bbl, which price is
now refused by most holders for straight
brands, which are very scarce. The inspec
tions for the week ending the 23d inst, are
5000 bbls Flour, 80 half do do, 1855 Corn
Meal, and 789 do Rye Flour.
Grain-The receipts and sales of Wheat
continue light, but the demand is steady, and
prices have advanced 3(g5c p bu, sales of
about 10000 bu having been made in lots at
l44(Gl52c for fair to coed reds, and l55(Gl62
for white, the market closing at our highest
figures. Rye has been in good demand and
scarce, and all offered found ready sale at 82c
for Penna Corn is 2(03c better, and about
10000 bu, mostly new Southern yellow, found
buyers at 6sS172c ahoat, and 68970c in the
cars and from store, including old Corn at
68(170c in store, and new White at 66C067c
ahoat. Wequote to-day at ourhighestfgures.
Oats are also better, with but few offering,
