WHEAT-Foreign markets do not offer
any. inducements to shippers, and local
trade is almost stagnant. Samples of new
crop have become numerous enough to
lose all novelty. The exhibits SO far show
pretty fair quality, while the prospects of
q large yield are more than favorable.
Prices are more or less nominal, owing to
the absence of any positive movement,
though $l.33a ctl is the recognized figure
for parcels that would grade as No. quail.

BAGS AND BAGGING-Wheat bags
are said to be meeting with very active
demand. Under the influence of strong
cOnsumptive demand, which may be said
to have fairly set in, importing holders are
generally unwilling to sell at present
rates. and are looking for higher prices to
prevail before long. The importations
for this season so far have been
several millions less than last year.

BARLEY-There is a pretty fair con-
