have given . stimulus to specula&ioas nm
known since the breaking out of Tie Tazko-
Russiaa war. The mania has extended b.
yond grain dealen and producera, and the de-
sire to buy i've NJ ten Ghousand bushels "a
catch the inevitable advance-if only - Q
Christmas present for the ''baby"-seems to
prevail almost universally. One days ad-
vance il only . confirmation of what the next
and the next will bring about in the minds Of
forcing values to such IN extent that there ID
NO opportunity fof reaction. Ensfah mar.
kets yield reluctantly to the pressure here,
though recognizing that they must eventually
dance to the air Of Yankee Doodle" The
present relative values between foreign and
home markets will not admit Of shipping. bui
the theory Of our strongest operators il thai
concessions must come from abroad.
Farmers' deliveries IN England are but one
third of what they ought to be, and the DUAL
ity of the grain unsatisfactory. The French
haxvesta are less discouraging. but the neces
sites of French consumer will be Is great q
last crop year. There il still no encourage
ment for the foreign consumer, to be CLEANED
from late statistics; the situation il proven
and "Uncle Sam" stands with the key Of u
enormous and well-6lled granary dangling q
tic. Receipts at interior points continue
about the same, and there il . growing desirs
among farmers west to hold for highel
prices.
Corn-Foreign markets show . better de
mand for corn, with . steady appreciation j.
prices. Our home markets for the week hav,
improved fully &c bushel, and are very act
i've At the advance. In our local market gool
demand for "ear corn" has sprung mp, snC
large lines have been sold. Cash commission
is also in good request here to fill Texas or
derA.
Rye-Exports have been fair; receipts light
er; and values have improved &c . bushel, il
sympsthy with wheat.
Oats-Lighter receipts, and . fair demand
impaired some activity to this market, and
ptices show . gain of l &c bushel.
Freights-Unchaneed.
