WHEAT-T upward movement in the sam
pie market has received Il temporary check.
chipmasters are demanding higher fIeights
and exporters claim that they cannot do uusi-
ness al existing figures in Liverpool unless local
sellers of Wheat make concessions from former
asking prices The buying limit has conse-
quently been lowered to 81 SIS 2 ctl as an ex-
treme for the better class of shipping quality
BARLEI-The feature of the ma ket at the
moment is a brisk Inquiry for Chevaler for
shipment. Nothing hut frst-class quality is
wanted, and for such an article buyers seem will
ing to pay more liberal rates than have been
current of late. Common grades will not be &C
cepted. and, fortunately, offerings of this char
acter are few aud small. Movement in feed is
light for ordinary.purposes, though round lots
are picked up for storage against Call ard
contracts; Occasionally miller pays $3.50 for
a fancy lot OF small proportions Brewing is
coming to more prominent recognition. With
prices shaping little more in favor of sellers.
