of from Cd to Is Sd per quarter on the week week I;
ton, and fetched about Is per quarter more
money.
PEsrH, Feb. A.-The weather during the last
se'nnight has been almost a succession OF dull
and rainy days, but the week closes fine and
wIsdy. The period is now approaching when
sharp northerly and northeasterly wind cur.
rents prevail, and the cereal plants will be put
TO the severest test. The danger OF inunda-
tions appears for the present 10 be removed.
The first grain vessels from the lower Danube
AS supplies both by sea and land have con-
tinued quite inadequate, and stocks on the
market considerably diminished, the tone OF
the wheat trade, n spite of the unlmproved
sale of -four, was very firm, and millers had to
pay an appreciation of 25kr to Sokr.

Psychologists to-day, 4,l54 bbls. Buyers
and sellers have been moving carefully for
several days and kept the market about even
ly balanced On the one hand there was an
indisposition to take more stock than could
readily be used to early advantage, as the con-
sumption is easily Influenced by very small
addition to cost, while against this, partly on
orders from shippers and partly on an impress
sion that receipts will run small, receivers
| have inclined TO carry stock rather than name
concessions. On this market to-day 1910 was
oo son ere eef r% foT c and no consider
able quantity could have been bought for
less ~
