market is still fiTmer, sales of large cargoes
being made at 33s Sd per quarter. This has
made a marked demand for ships, and rates
yesterday asked for vessels and not obtained
are to-day being paid, namely, 23s cd for
large and 25s for small, for orders At pres
ent we cannot disclose names, but business is
being transacted at these rates. The spot
Wheat market has advanced and is very firm.
Shipping Wheat is especially sought.
Barley was dealt in to the extent OF 1000
tons-1oo tons December at 891lc, 600 tons
seller '92 at from S514c to see, 100 tons buyer
December at 9O5zc and 200 tons May at 95c.
The spot market is steady at same prices.
Oats and Corn are very weak There is no
activity in Rye.
There is no fancy Creamery Butter in to-
day, but a consignment is expected to-mor-
row, when 4oc viii doubtless be obLainable.
Cheese is firm and Eggs steady.
The only change to note in Vegetables is q
slight advance in Cucumbers and Peas.
Onions and Potatoes are in moderate demand
for shipping purposes.
Fruits are dull at quotations, no especial de-
mand prevailing for any kind.
Poultry is fairly active. 4 large amount of
Game which has so far come to the market is
unstable and has to be thrown away. 1t is
hard to realize quotations given.
