Flour WAS less active, but STEADY. The de-
mand on city account was light, and there WIS
little done except to fill few direct orders 10,
shipment. There is better supply from which
to choose than recently, and buyers are not 50
anxious, the principal reason being understood
to be the difficulty OF procuring freight room.
Rye aud buckwieat -four were STEADY. Bran
was lower. Sales were reported Of 100 brls

at S1l.00 on track.
Wheat was rather Glow, bus relatively firm,
ranging higher than last evening, though ~
below the average Of yesterday. Liverpool was
without, important change, but New York was
quoted dull and heavy, the reason being under-
ing cars sent there from the Vest. The freight
by rail from Buffalo is quoted at 18e per bu.
There WAS not much wheat offered on our mar
ket to-day, on option, and the market for car
lots was steady, though rather slow. We have
now nearly ,0oo, 900 in store here, but there nre
still large amounts undelivered for this month.
and considerable quantities have been bought
on Canadian account, the receipts for which will
be sent East next week, to hold during the win
ter. The snow that fell thls'morning was gen.
interrupted, but it cleared off toward noon, and
then prices eased down, while it was UNDER
stood that tho lighter inspection OF 81 cars,
this morning, was only due to temporary
delay on one or two Of the railroads. Of couraa

Corn was dull, and again }7Sc lower, being re-
: material Iet-np in receipts, and no shipping
demand to look forward to this winter, There
were few buyers except. those who had shorts to
fill, and plenty Of sellers, but principally from
the ranks of those who either hold the corn or
have it coming to them next month. There is q
general indisposition to nssumo new risks in
corn, either way as it is generally believed that
any material advance in prices would bring on
an avalanche,. and any considerable decline
would cut Of the supply. Seller January was tho
declined to S0sc at the close. Seller tho
