lowing r5ilable review Of the grain trade:
Wheat-In foreign markets during the
past week steady feeling has prevailed.
Values Of winter wheat are unchanged
while the lower grades Of spring have i'm
proved one penny per Genital. Continued
wet and cold weather have operated unfa-
yorably with the growing crops In Great
Britain, and some weeks of bright sun
shine are absolutely necessary to secure a
fair quality from the growing plant. In
our own markets, for the week, the move
ment has been quiet. and values have fal-
len OIL 4c on winter and &c on spring wheat.
Shipments of the new crop, winter" are
arriving in Western markets, showing ex-
cellent quality, and the promise of an early
liberal increase later this month. will test
the strength of Eastern markets. There
seems to be a general desire on the part OF
producers to market the present crop as
early as possible, fearing profitable yield
from the spring wheat sections will depress
prices still further. Reports from the grain
nelds OF the Northwestern States are favor
able, and statistics of this years wheat
growth throughout Canada show large
area under cultivation, with promise of an
NphhuuuI glclu vi BOOu Vuulll1.
Corn-An advance of pence per quarter
early In the week in Liverpool market has
not been sustained. and values at present
writing. are unchanged from last week.
No change has taken place in onr home
markets in price; the general movement
being about the same as for previous week.
Rye-Eastern markets continue firm for
this cereal, demand active, with lighter
deliveries. Exports show a falling of in
orders for foreign account, the "clearances"
for the week realizing only ,GS9 bushels.
Oats-NO new features in this market, no
change in values. Lighter receipts are re-
ducing stocks in sight" which now show
1,SSS, ,SS3 bushels.
Freight-Rail freights are unchanged.
This morning tow" with three barges
reached cur levee from st. Louis, and will
take on 100000 bus. corn contracted for at
low rates. Should the return be as sue
cessful as the trip here we may look for the
early establishment of barge line between
our city and st. Louis. The effect will be
the material enhancement in price of the
products OF Kansas. and the concentration
at this market of a great proportion of the
cereal of the country tributary to our city
Low rail freights must necessarily follow
this movement.
