parts OF May were moderately fine, and
then winter re-appeared. and it was ex.
p' cted that forage would be deficient
but towards the close there was an i'm
provement, and the first week in June
was positively forcing by its heat, but
on the third week the rough cold had
returned, and haymaking was much him
dered by rain. At Paris flour has again
dropped franc, and wheat about Is Cd,
as was the case also in several provin
cial markets. Belgium and Holland are
about Is lower. and vi. nna prices have
been dropping, but slight recovery has
been noted at New York. In Hungary
the disappearance of the snow had
caused some uneasiness, though with
small supplies the corn trade ruled dull
so it was in Algeria, and wheat had
rather given way in Egypt. but at
Odessa, with almost nothing doing,
holders maintained high prices with per-
feet confidence.

Wheat was nominally unchanged in val

BOsTON.-Milder weather has pre-
vailed OF late. and the condition OF the
grain has not been very good. Business
III wheat to-day was flat, and except tor
good samples prices were rather lower
than Of late !; transactions were on Il lin
tied scale.
, HULL.-The weather continues very
mild and open. Of wheat the arrivals
consisted OF 1881 qrs. from konigsberg,
2,l05 qrs LandskrOna, $3.50 qrs Alexan-
dtla, 600 qrs from Santander and 73J
qrs from near ports; the trade has ruled
very quiet and dull, with scarcely suffi
} cient business enough to warrant any al
teration in quotations, but to effect sales
holders would have to lower their pre-
, tentions, which they are not disposed te
do at present in the face OF OF the nav1
CATION of the Baltic ports being almos
interrupted by ice.
