pretty steadily held. Sales were reported
| mainly in small lots OF few cars at the
most. Some patents sold to points in New
England at $5.15 delivered, and at points
taking New York rates Of freight at S.. O5.
Cable inquiries to-day were spoken of as not
encouraging in bidding prices, though there
was fair inquiry. of course, with the differ
ence existing between the views of buyers
in English markets and sellers views here,
the amount of trading for the day was insig-
as to cut much figure in reducing quotations,
! though it was claimed there was cutting done.
Cutting on prices cannot be extensive until
wheat declines or flour advances. Patents,
