WHEAT-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

LAO u ctl for the better grades, and the

give quick dispatch to vessels, and the

port movement within the next two or
three months. Bidding was somewhat
lively, but sellers were less prompt. or the

BAGS AND BAGGING-The reapers
have been in the wheat fields of Califor-
MIA for a month, but little new wheat has
Deen sacked, and consequently the actual
consumptive demand for wheat bags

BARLEY-Them market has been Fquite
firm the last week. Old feed is scarce.
and new cropls not being specially forced
harvesting is proceeding leisurely, 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 SIZE, while 825(d85c q ctl is about
the range for desirable spot parcels of new
crop. Brewing maintains pretty strong
front. Buyers are in the market ror prime
