Wheat cables noted stronger market yesI
terday. and 1t caused better buying here,
with consequent advance in prices in cOnnec-
lion with the seeding oelBy i'll The North.
General hrmness was noted in all American
markets, although buying from points out
side was of limited character here, as il
was said to be elsewhere. Considerable long
wheat is held for an early rise. If that does
not come soon some dealers look for sales OF
enough to cause reaction. The available
supply of wheat decreased for the whole
country 1,901,000 bushels last week. Many
were looking yesterday morning for an ad-
vance.
Cash Wheat There was a better inquiry
for all classes of milling wheat yesterday
The receipts were good. and local nliilers
were fair buyers of No. northern at sic.
This was Ac under July. A few sales OF
fancy wheat were made Mt the full July
price. but they were difficult to make No
northern sold from 75c up 10 7Sc, and No.
from 6Sc up TO I5c. according TO the quality
The supply of rejected and no grade was
light.
hard to get. Several orders in that could not
be filed. Quite good deal of poor stuff was
offered, ranging from $3.50 to $3.50 per ton.
FLOUR AND COARSE GRAINS.
Flour-The added daily output Of the mills
grinding Yesterday probably aggregate 1880
bDls. shipments 2s, 1863 bbls. Quoted at S4.1Q
otto for first patents; S3.S@411 for second
patents; S3.20@430 for fancy and export
bakers: 81. .20e12. 10 tor low grades I'D bags,
including red dog.
Flour was easy in all respects. with
quieter movement. The demand up 10 this
time is called smaller than it was in the same
time last week. Two local millers reported
pretty fair business, while the others talked
of general quietness now. A large amount
of surplus bakers was disposed Of and the
patents are pretty well sold up, so that the
trade has little present embarrassment
although business for prompt movement is
slow
Bran and Shorts = Shipments, ss4 tons.
Quoted at SJ@.9.50 for bran. S9ig9. 80 tor shorts
and 50 .50Gle.50 for mlddl1ngs.
MillstuH is going out fairly at about 81 for
bran and common shorts. Fine shorts are
held all the way up to Sl0-50, although few
reach the upper figure. The present pFice is
considered fairly low compared with other
feed, but with improving pasturage there Is
natural tendency TO general slackness IL this
trade, excepting at 10 " figures.
Corn-Receipts. 5.31J bu. Quoted at 36l20
&c for good dry No. 3. 3i0l3>c for dry No
yellow, and 36035l2c for dry No. 4. Damp
corn is quotable at l20!c less than dry, ac-
cording to condition. No grade 1l2Gl2c un-
der No. 3. according to quality. Corn was
stronger in the large corn markets, and cables
reported higher prices III British markets.
The late poor grading, caused by bad wealth
er and the good shipping demand for No
from the large receiving points. made good
futures market. Samples were moving in q
limited way, with the ordinary home demand
and small arrivals.

ba Quoted at 2sI202Jc for No. , white. $50
2Sl2c for No white. and 26Q2Sc for Nos.

noted as usual, with fair arrivals and small
shipments the latter reaching about fifth
of the receipts The futures markets were
quite generally firm. Buyers of sample held
off about paving an advance the same hold
