crops, aud receipts Of not loss than 5000 qrs
(6s0, 900 bu). Tho New, York advces wero un-
lots, which were wanted to sono extont
for shipment, though probably more for the
purpose Of filling May options and the
lower gradoa wore III such demand as to rule 1D
being bought up to be transformed into No. to
ill May shorts. There is now but about 200, 900
bu No. spring in store, aud the receipts,
though On tho increase, are not large enough to
provont the stocks from being cloared out COM
In. a woels OF really active shipment would
empty Ill our binB. Hence holders o. cash
wheat arc not anxious to part with 1t, though
the moro deferred options are inclining to wonk- %
ness, In anticipation Of liberal yield. Seller

and it was reported that large part Of our ro-
ceipts bud been inspected rejected. Tho lsst
named fact brought out n good speculative de-
mand, especially from the short interest, gome
of whom expressed the fear that wo shall get
scarcely any No. 2 corn from the country II this
weather continues, and the ,prosont strict IN
spoction is kept up. This will mako No. 2 rela-
tfyely scarce, and may Interfere materially with
deliveries Of corn sold to arrive from the
country. There was also good shipping de-
mand. stimulated by. the recent reduction in
lake freights. Much Of this inquiry was
