Dbl; Superfne, 81 SO@s3 %.
WHEAT-There is not much activity to be
noted though rather strong feeling is percept-
1ble. The fact is, there is not so very much
frstclsss shipping Wheat in the State, and
owners of stock of this character are holding
with confidence. For such product ready sale
can be found at 81 32a, while it is probable that
81 3354 2 ctl would be given if the lot were of
uniform grade. Prices for offerings below stand
ard are irregular, the demand being almost
nominal.
BARLEY-The market is almost stationary at
the moment. Feed descriptions meet with
moderate inquiry. while offerings are liberal
ana the situation is against sellers Brewing
qualities show easier feeling as no fresh orders
on Eastern account have been received. Adj
vanced freight rates, together with the near
closing of the mating season at the East, will
check overland shipments. No demand exists
for Chevalier, and prices are therefore nominal.
