ports. This demand kept prices fairly steady
Ior Fruits, for a rule Gamers do not buy
freely towards the close of the week. In cere-
ais Wheat showed more firmness with, for
special purposes, an advance paid on current
quotations. Barley was steady at unchanged
quotations. Oats were firm, but no higher.
Corn was quiet but fairly firm. 1t is claimed
that there is quiet buying for Mexico; if this
is correct then the movement is kept more
quiet than ever before. Beans are frmer again
owing to the filling of orders from Mexico.
Up to yesterday there had not been buy
ing for Mexico for at least ten days past. The
very low freights by sail to New York are in
ducing shipping. The freight is quoted at
SO so per ton. The decline is due TO strong
competition between two lines of sailing yes
sells plying between this city and New York.
New York mail advices received to-day re-
port that Gamers have withdrawn selling
offers of Canned Tomatoes owing 10 reports of
damage to the crop by the late severe weather.
