WHEAT-Snce the advent Of the new year busi-
ness has disappointed holders Its true there have
been occasional spurts, but they were checked be-
fore any large movement could be inaugurated. The
Liverpool market early in January gave promise OF
improvement, but for week it has been quiet
and stationary while to-day the telegrams announce
decline of Cd cargoes and Id spot lots. Ship
pers are doing comparatively nothing, and unless
the export interest can be revived by some fortuit
Gus circumstance there is little hope OF any very
| pronoun eed immediate activity. Sellers seem 10
take matters quite easy and continue TO ask 81 20

BAR1EY-There is nothing specially interesting to
report. For week the market has been steady at
current quotations. 1t was expected that prices

official announcement OF the stock in the State on
the 1st instant which given at S23 900 etls
against ,65l 900 c;s year ago. But so far there
has been no extra buoyancy observable. Holders
are certainly firm and positive, believing that the
advantages are largely in their favor. Reported
sales OF bay Chevaer last Saturday at 81 10 caused
holders of this description to feel sanguine OF beiug
able to dispose Of their stocks. Yet neither yester
day to day did we learn of any inquiry for other
than feed, if we except small transfer OF 200 SKIS
