SuDerIine. 81 90613 IS.
WHEAT-Therc is no very lively market,
though the situation is more favorable for the
selling interest than IN some time. The trouble
at the moment is the want of ships ready for
loading If such accommodations were at hand
there would be quite brisk trading all round.
as II Is, Shippers ere not inclined TO do much
buying ahead, and marked activity is therefore
not possible under such circumstances Good
shipping grades that come up to standard are
choice asking 81 421s p ctl. SanglIine operators
talk higher figures, and their ideas might be
realized If a liberal amount of immediate ton
rage were available. Offerings are not excess
i've, though they are moderately free and are
likely TO continue so during the coming month
BAkLEI-No trade of consequence is in pro-
gress in this article. Offerings of old feed are
fairly canvassed. but sales are light, as the in
qulry is only on local account, and tins class of
custom is satisfied without creating anything
like positive activity. New Feed is held above
quotations, and is not being pressed. More or
less business is transacted in both old and new
Brewing every day. Purchases of new are
mostly for shipping uses. We quote prices as

California Oats are coming forward, though not
