British Grain Trade

LONDON, Aug 26.-The Mark Lane Express
in its review of the British grain trade dur
ing the past week, says: "a rainy and chilly
August has diminished the value of the
crops. The area Of rain-soaked corn is very
large. The condition of barley is also very
bad. The samples of new wheat received
here have not been numerous. The opening
price for white wheat WIS 36s, and for red
33s. Red wheat sells slow. The deliveries
have been larger than usual and prices low.
The sales of English wheat during the week
were $3.50 quarters at sos sd against 90
649 quarters at 36s Id during the correspond
ing period last year. One cause for cheapness
of home grown wheat is attributed to the
languid demand for flour and the plentitude
and cheapness of vegetables. Both foreign
flour and foreign wheat are dull. The sup
piles exceed the requirements, being nearly
loo, 900 quarters ahead of the demand dur
ing the week. Beans and peas are firm,
owing to bad reports of the home yield, the
large quantity of foreign on passage prevents
an advance. AT to-day's market, fine white
new wheat was held at 35@3Ss, fair damp
red was offered at 31@34s, and old English
at 31s. The big strike blocks trade. For
eign wheat for immediate delivery was
dearer Corn, except for immediate delivery,
was easier; the inquiry was slack. Barley
was steady. Oats were dearer.

though the improvements values was steady,
with small fluctuations. The bulls gained con-

announcement was made that the secretary

the accelerated upward movement in prices
