There is no material change in Flour, trans
actions are still mainly confined to established
brands Wheat is steady and fairly active for
high grades with light offerings; only 1000
bushels were offered on change to-day and sold at
80 to 81 for Fultz; 81 for mixed SO for good
longberry but little strictly choice has been
offered for several days; common and damaged
lots bring from 70 to 7S cts. Corn is steady;
good white brought 80. No Rye or Oats were
sold. Produce is without change. Bacon and
Sugars are hrmer but not quotably higher.

BALTIC. SUGARAND COFFEE MARKET. Get. TO-
Sugars-In the market for Sugars the tone
has been reasonably cheerful and little moro an
mation shown in the demand. The buyers
principally local and evidently not investing be-
yond immediate wants. 1t is claimed that re-
aners have gradually allowed their accummula-
tions to waste away and are now really quite
anxious for supplies. with some holders confident
that the turn Of the market has at last been
reached. We hear of nothing to warrant an ad-
dition to quotations yet. Quotations arc Aga
SC for fair to good refining. Grocery grades of
New Orleans 6s6lsc; centrifugal 7lba1si. For
refined Sugars the market is steady though quiet.
We quote: Cut loaf TIC; for crushed 7ls; for
powdered 67s; for graduated 6lo soft Ga
yellow Sac.
Coffee The market is dull and quotations are
shade lower but tho feeling is rather better,
though the demand is very light. Sales are re-
ported of 5000 bags on private terms. The
jobbing trade is quiet. There were no sales at
the Exchange to-day. We quote Rio invoices as
follows: Ordinary at 9s944 cts, fair at 10a1OA
cts, good at 1o1aa1o'4 cts, and primo at 11a11A
cents.
