BARLEY-The market cannot be said to be
in favorable condition for the selling interest
Buyers will not take hold to an extent that will
impart activity to trade or reduce stocks in first
hands, That a softer feeling prevails than q
week ago must be admitted, while there is dis
position to meet custom at moderate conces-
sion on asking prices. AT the moment no one
expects to obtain over Sic p Ctl for choice feed

array of offerings, out the trouble is to find buy
ers. From SOC to 81 Is the full range for good
