LONDON. Aug. lS.-The Mark Lane Erpress,
in its review Of the grain trade during the
past week. says: THE weather is unaltered.
4 large part OF the grain crop has been har-
vested with the best results. Wheat returns
show 81 per cent. of yield. This Is over the
average; 30 per cent. is the average and Il
per cent. the lowest point. Other crops are
slightly under the average. The wheat trade
Is nominal. New English wheat declined 2s
during the week. The price of wheat ranges
los and flour 81 lower than IN 1883. New
grain is hmty, owing to the excessive heat.
Foreign wheat at LOndOnis demOrallzed. both
for present and prospective orders. The ar
rivals numbered 10; cargOes were sold, 4
were Withdrawn, remained and 20 are due.
Forward values are nominal at large de-
cline. Flour is neglected and 6s Id cheaper
Barley is ne elected, only few samples being
offered. Oats are dull. Beans and peas are
unaltered. Llnseed Is quiet. Maize Is quiet.
There have been large arrivals. Prices are
