The Markets.

In every market III this country, as well as In
Europe, prices of wheat seem to be slowly but
steadily giving way. The supply is now large,
and the high rates that ruled through so long a
scarcity can no longer be sustained The crop in
the L. S. is larger than we shall need, and the
question is, how much will be needed abroad?
On that head statisticians seem not yet ready to
report. Corn still keeps up, but as that crop
also promises to be abundant, q decline before
great while also seems inevitable.
