fine. s. 15(3S 50 p Dbl.
WHEAT-There is scarcely any spot trading.
Asking prices have passed the point at which
shippers can do business For 1--WE days there
has been no change i'll the situation at Liverpool
while values have appreciated here in the minds
OF holders pretty nearly 1Cc 4 ctl. Prominent
exporters say that private advIceS report Eng
lish markets as quiet, with scarcely any inquiry
for cargoes The strength impaired to the local
situation is mainly attributed to the poor &C
counts in regard to the coming harvest In the
absence of any legitimate business of Inagni-
tude. the market may be quoted as nominal at
81 40 to 81 30 e ctl

BARLEY-The market is entirely in the hands
of the selling interest, who are seemingly in
position to dictate prices. Yesterday sales oil
feed were made on basis ofSl 10 2 ctl, but this
morning a bid of 81 20 was said to have been re-
for quotation, SO that from 81 20 to 81 % Z ctl

feed qualities. There is the same buoyant feel
ing in brewing For fair No. l quality 81 80 q

Business is dull and prices are irregular. Buy
ers still hold of, taking barely enough to meet
immediate wants Quotable at "a Sc Z IL for
choice, and 31@Q5c for poor offerings.
RYE-Market easy so far as iobbing trade is
concerned, though there is SAID to be good in
quiry for round lots If stocks were better con-
centrated some more lively trading would occur.
Quotable at s. ~ Z ctl rs an extreme for ordi-
nary custom, though exporters would probably
pay more for parcels OF magnitude.
| POTATOFS-No dealer is anxious to buy old
at any price except on orders. The market has
! been dwindihg downward for some time, but
yesterday morning the bottom fell out OF com
Dletely. The heavy stocks on hand and the
| knowledge that there are yet several thousand
| bags TO come from various sections have made
| ali old potatoes almost vaueless. The daily re-
| ceipts of the new will now reach from 700 TO 900
bags which quantity has been proved, by the
| slow sale they meet, to be more than enough for
our immediate requirements. Wharf rates are

Reds, 40450c; Petaiumas, 40@50c: Garnet Chile,

| Enthusiastically all kinds are better. Whites
| perhaps. show the greater improvement, as all
| grades are being more generally inquired after
| and find quicker custom. BayoS are firm and i'll
| demand. There are so many Pinks Offering that,
|
quence weak tone is evident. Reds are but
| little inquired tor. Buffers are not being offered
| 50 freely and firmer feeling IS noted. Limas
| now have II status. Some Jew conslgnments
| have come forward, and sales 10 arrive are I'M
| derstoOd to have been negotiated. The cause
