WHEAT-The market has been oscillating of
late, prices being firm one day and weak the
next. Fluctuations have been tTihing, to be
sure, but the irregularity of the situation has
caused feeling of uncertainty to prevail, and
sales of magnitude have not been the rule Just
at the moment there does not seem to be any
urgent shipping inquiry and this circumstance
does not tend to increase confidence in the i'm
mediate future. This morning the tone of the
market was of decidedly easy character and it
would have to be pretty good parcel to bring
out bid of over 81 S21a z ctl. The disposition
to sell is rather posisve than otherwise.
BARLEG-Holders of feed qualities do not
feel cheerful at present prospects. The demand
is light and slow while stocks are large and
constantly increasing. Brewing descriptions
sre in fair request, and moderate movement is
in progress in all grades adapted to shipping

BEANS-No movement of note. The market
is pretty well supplied with Pea and Small

FRUlT-Selers are still at a disadvantage as
supplies continue TO arrive with freedom.
at nominal figure. Choice Bartlett Pears are
scarce, while OF poor quality there is liberal
supply. Dumping OF considerable of this latter
article is only prevented by the free buying of
peddlers. Catalogues and Watermelons re-
ceive fair attention. Grapes are abundant, be-
ing offered at low quotations. Peaches meet
with rather good custom, especially product
that is of select character. Figs make moder-
ate display, though selling slowly. Berries
bring good prices, considering the competition
from other varieties. In another week or so

wane ana higher prices can be expected. We
