WllEAT-The demand is steady, with
out being pressing. Grain is being sent
forward little more freely, though ar
rivals are yet sufficiently limited to admit
of convenient handling. Prices seem to
be established for the present at Sl37!a
l.lO T. ctl for the better grades, and the
market at these figures can be considered
rather firm. Operators are disposed to
give quick dispatch to vessels, and the
outlook is quite favorable for Il good ex-
port movement within the next two or
three months. Bidding was somewhat
lively, but sellers were less prompt, or the
record would have been greater. Sales

! BAGS AND BAGGING-The reapers
have been in the wheat fields of Califor

BARLEI-The market has been quite
firm the last week. Old feed is scarce
and new cropls not being specially forced
harvesting is proceeding leisurefy, while
receipts are not excessive. The demand
has fairly absorbed supplies, and sellers
generally have been able to realize to adj
vantage. Strictly choice old feed changes
hands at the moment in .jobbing way as
high as SHE, while S24@S5c Il ctl is about
the range for desirable spot parcels of new
crop. brewing maintains a pretty strong
