In regard to the quality Of No. barley in tht
Central elevators, referred to by us this morning
the Chief Inspector Of Grain authorizes the
statement that not ono appeal has been taker
from the cut inspection IT the Central in the
past twelve months. It is also reported that the
receipt OF barley from tesnaa at those houses wns
stopped Some time ago, 20 that the discrimina-
J ton in prices is probably more the result OF
prejudice than anything else, and may have been
| taken advantage Of BY some parties to their own
benefit Sales we're msde to-day 1t 93c for No.
in the Central, which II considerable i'm

rived here to-day from Canada, and enough

purchases OF caah lots were made mostly to ap-
ply on options, though there was = moderate
shipping movement. There was less to do TO-
day, except in barley, than is usual on the last
day OF The month, in settling up contracts which
expire by limitation on the day in question.
