Wednesday, May IS.
Business movements to day were rather
easy but steady In the main. A fair trade
was done In some jobbing lines, but grain
and produce were rather dull with an easy
tendency. Prices generally ruled about ai
quoted last week, but the feeling favored
lower rather than higher quotations, ex
cept as II was effected by the apprehen'
sions that some damage may have been
done TO the growing crops by the frost.
REANB-There Ii quiet market al
steady aud unchanged prices. We quote
at S2a2 25 for prime white navy; other
grades as TO quality.
BUrTER-The market remains dull and
weak even on the choice qualities, which
are in large supply and move slowly at re.
duced quotations. As choice qualities are
abundant and sell at about the same prices
as medium grades obtained q month ago,
there Is no demand for the latter and they
are lifeless and nominal even at the low
quotations given. We quote strictly choice
fresh roll and solid.packed at l2hal5c.
