Wheat and Four, h improved tp tone and
amount, but Is still restricted by thew OF
msney accommodations.
Flour is steady in price and does notsym-
pathise with the weakness OF the Wheat
market The trade Is confined entirely 70
the supplying of the demand Tor city con-
sumption. Buckwheat Flour Is lower, with
with q weak market; holders are anxious
to dispose of the stock on hand. Rye Flour
Is Il m and steady and without change or
price during The week.
Wheat 1. very dull and transactions linn.
tied. The decline In prices in Western mar
kets having an effect here. We think there
may be q temporary decline here, but bel.
ter pric g than now rule will be paid be-
fore the new crop comes IN. 20 -a. " .-
Corn dull at 45c. Oats firm at 4O9i2c.
Dealers anticipating higher prices
The Butter market Is firm expressly for
choice, and the city trade absorbs all that
comes In. II will not be many weeks now
until the Spring make will be in and we
shall then have better grade at lower pri.

The Wool market is very dull, and prices
have declined fully SC. on the pound, with
no saleso any large amount. The markets
