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
large yield are more than favorable
Prices are more or less nominal, owing to
the absence of any positive movement,
though $1.373 y 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 a 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.
We quote best quality Calcutta wheat
bags, standard size and weight, at HOT SOC
for spot lots and 74(G73c for future deliv-
cry; San Quentin factory make, d; Califor-
MIA Jute Mill make, 73c: potato gunnies,

sumptive demand, and moderately good
| trade is in progress. The market is free
of excitement or speculation, and business
is entirely of a legitimate character. For
several days the situation has shown con-
siderable strength. but this is to be at
| tributed more to light receipts than to
pressure from buyers. Most parcels of
hands at 85c, though occasionally 82Ic is
accepted in order to close out an invoice.
