The telegraphed news from st. Louis tells
that the first arrival OF new winte. wheat, 10o
bags, has sold there at $1.50 per bu. How
many thousand barrels of flour will be sold rs
made from that lot Of wheat! :
The people on 'Change deny that any one
there is short for 100000 bu June wheat, or
ANYTHING like that quantity. They sag that &c.,
Goa bu was the biggest single line Of shorts out,
and that has been filled.
We note that the advance in rail freights to
a0c per 100 lbs Of grain to New York twill take
effect on the 23d inst, not on the 10th, as
stated in some Of the commercial reports.
The railroads are now less pressed for freight
room tnan they we're week ago. and some OF
them are ready to take fresh orders to move
grain to the seaboard.
About 100000 bu Of corn for future delivery
was bought By one firm early Saturday morn-
ing Somebody evidently thinks well Of corn
at present prices. The reports all agree in
promising big crop; but the consum ption of
corn would be enormously increased If the yield
Of hav and oats be as small Us Is feared by
many.
Oats wer> weak Saturday, The decline OF the
previous day led man; to think that the top had
been reached and passed, and they rushed in to
sell before the market should decline further in
reaction from the recent excitement. The de-
cline averaged fully 1c, spot oats being the
~ RI Trina
shorts.
Adrices from Northern Illinois, Iowa, and
Wisconsin put the oat crop In q aourishing con-
dition. It is understood that these reports were
accompanied with free orders to sell for August
and September delivery.
Corn and oats we're about the only exceptions
to dullness on 'Change. Wheat was very quiet,
the July deal being entirely neglected at times.
The June deal In wheat was less active, and
steadier, some settlements being made, mostly
at Sl05@1.05]1. Provisions were tame, but
steady, in spite Of lower prices for hogs; pork
being especially dull.
Lake frcights we're more active, and steady, at
11S@2c for corn to Buffalo, the outside being
paid for small vessels. Rail rates were steady
on the basis oi 15c per 100 lbs to New York,
with more new business doing. Through rates
to Liverpool we're quoted at 4215c Der 100 lbs on
meats, and do to Antwerp at 56Ac.
Dry goods were quoted strong There was d
liberal movement in staple and seasonable
goods, and an upward tendency in prices is
still noted. The demand for groceries contiu-
ues generous. Orders are pouring In from all
parts Of the interior, and the volume OF sales is
in excess Of former years at corresponding
period. Coffecs were strong, aud the tone of
the sugar market was also decidedly firm. No
price changes were developed. In the fish mar
ket there was fair activity, and previous prices
were maintained. Butter was moving rather
more freely, and for fine goods the feeling was
slightly tirmer. Cheese was again quoted easy,
the offerings exceeding the demand A light
movement in dried fruits Was noted at previous
prices Oils, paints, and colors were quiet and
steady. Leather was stroug under q good de-.
mand from manufacturers. The coal market
was quoted firm at S450 for all sizes Of anthra-
cite. =.
At the lumber, yards trade wns active at re-
cent prices. The cargo market was dull and
easy. The offerings were fair, and local buyers
were holding back, their docks being full Of
stuff that arrived during the week. Wool con-
ttnues firm, under good inquiry and in SYM
pathy with other markets. -Broom-corn and
seeds were steady, und hides closed stronger.
y,
Poultry was in fair local request, and unchanged
in price, and eggs declined Domestic green
fruits were lower. The receipts OF berries
were heavy, and prices averaged about 25@40c
per case lower. Other native fruits were slow,
and receivers were anxious to close out
MOVEMENT or WHEAT.
