Barley was quite steady. In store No.
and No. were both in fair demand, with
the latter trifle frmer. Futures of No. 2

In flour lifeless market is quotable,
and 1t has been next to an impossibillty to
bring about sales at any fair price with
the better family and bakers brands
holding up well but for shipping and the
lower grades little can be done with any
satisfaction, and it would require q lower
price to bring about sales. Rye flour slow.
Buckwheat flour slow. Bran and mill
stuffs were slow yet in light supply and
holding firm.
In the provision pit there was consider
able business transacted, but largely on
speculative account. Under the influence
of the liberal receipts of hogs and de-
cline of about loo per 100 pounds there
was little more disposition early to sell
product for future delivery, and prices
were slightly reduced on the larger deliv-
cries. Later, however, the feeling was de-
cidedly stronger and prices rallied again
and ruled with considerable strength to
the close of the session. The shipping de-
mand was moderately active and prices
exhibited little change. The receipts of
product were considerably larger and the
shipments were unusually heavy of all
kinds. Foreign advices indicated an
easier feeling in pork and quotations were
reduced Is, while lard was stronger and Cd
higher and bacon unchanged. Eastern
markets were rather quiet, but prices we'll
maintained.

Esq 35c and ruled with considerable stes d.
mess to the close. The shipping demand
was fair in the way of filling small orders.
