The European Grain Market.

The European Grain Market.
New YORK, Sept. 21.-The Marx
Lane ETpress review for the week end
ing the 7th, says: "The decline in
wheat has generally ceased in Eng
land and France. Indeed, Paris notes
an improvement of a shilling per quar-
ter, and flour is slightly dearer AS
yet there is no improvement in for
eign, yet we hardly think millers will
long allow the present opportunity to
pass to secure stock at reduced rates;
for, although the supplies have as yet
kept up, they must shortly fall off
greatly, as the stocks in Europe are
small and are not heavy in America,
where the rates are very susceptible of
improvement. The low quotations in
France and England have, however,
produced their effects all over Europe,
without a chance of material recovery
except through some disaster, and
toward the end of the season when
stocks get low. Everywhere the wheat
crop has shown the best yield. Barley
seems likely not to rule so high, as the
French mailing sorts have already
given way to high quotations. The
sales at Hamburg have quite put
stop to exports, but we shall know
better about the prospects of this grain
when the mailing season begins. Oats
though cheaper keep dear, as well as
beans and peas, but the late reduction
in maize must, we think, bring this
grain again into increased demand"
