WHEAT-Trade continues of dragging char
acter. Exporters have about all immediate
wants satisfied, and there is no talk of negotiat
ing for the chartering of any more vessels at
present Stock that an be properly classed as
of standard grade is pretty well narr wed down
as to quantity, and also tolerably well concen-
trated Wheat of this character is held at
81 321a u ctl and is hardly obtainable tor less in
large amounts Still, small offering would
likely find slow sale if more than 81 so were
asked. On Change to-day millers paid 81 80,
and fancy lot might even bring an advance.
BARLEY-Business has remained quiet for so
a long time, while prices have kept uniform,
that almost any change would be satisfactory TO
operators, if the market could only be got into
more active motion. This morning there were
signs of steadier feeling, and buyers paid
triiie more for selected lots of feed. IL is TO be
hoped the improvement will continue. Brewing
hnds inquiry solely from local custom, and this
of not magnitude enough to impsrt any very
quick movement 10 the situation. Chevalier is
meeting with some attention, said to be on Co
lonial account. 1t is claimed that about 500
tons have been secured for shipment on the
next Australian steamer. and that this quantity
does not quite fill the order Beyond this trans
action there is nothing doing Feed, good to
