The markets were slow in the sale of wheat
for future months. Cables denoted condi-
ton in foreign markets about the same as in
American markets That is, wheat had
slow, downward tendency in English markets
and French markets were quieter Prices
were not much chahged anywhere. The
weather was hot. but the stiff breeze it was
thought would prevent scalding of the grain.
The market was Slow on milling wheat be-
cause of the advance asked No 1 northern
sold mostly at SOC for good wheat and eCi2 for
fancy lois. No grades showed a continued
Improvement i'll the demand but at the same
time the market did not clean up a good

FLOUR AND COARSE GRAINS.
Flour - Receipts, 1000 bills: shipments,
80, 1Gs bbls. Quoted at SiD4.40 for first pat
ents; $3.NGe4.l0 for second patents; S.. Is
o.. Is for low grades in bags, including red
dog. There is undoubtedly a more hopeful
feeling among millers regarding the outlook
for flour. Many are reticent and not inclined
be learned. orders have been numerous for
flour at from Ice to 15c over quotations, that
acceptances have been made, and that some
of the larger firms have enlarged their views
regarding values. We think The outlook is
bright
Corn-Rece;pts, $500 Blu: shipments $50
bu; quoted ATS @i2l2 for good dry No. B; $50
3Sc for No. yellow, 35@J6c for dry No. T.
The corn market is somewhat nervous. and
values are uncertain. Quotations remain
about the same, but buyers shade samples
little more closely. There is no change from
Friday.
Rye-Receipts none: shipments. 800 bu;
was quoted nominally at 69970c for No. 2
f. o. b.
Oats-Receipts, n,44obu; shipments. 1000
bu. Quoted at 29@3Oc for No white, 29e
pTlz
oats. Oats are little weaker, if ANYTHING.
The demand for shipping is quite good, but
buyers sickle for concessions. We quote
prices the same, but it is doubtful whether
the best prices could be got except for extra
samples.
Bran and Shorts-Quoted at 5000. % for
bran. $9.250J.75 for shorts and S10@l0.50 for
middlings. Millstuffs are little firmer, with
much better inquiry.
Barley-Receipts, 1880 bu: shipments $50
blu. Barley is slow, with n fair demand for
the best grade. 1t is held at 3S@D4sc for No.
B. and No at 3c@i0c per bu. There is
nothing new in the barley market. There is
not enough Of any particular grade to call
for market. AS consequence the demand
hinges on the wants of several purchasers
There is O fair demand for feeding purposes;
other than that there is no demand.
FlaX-FlaX sales are based, less freight, on
Chicago market. Chicago flax closed at
$l.O3.
Feed-Millers held at sl5.25@15 so per ton:
less than car lots, Sl69I7, with cornmeal
at Sl4.2sQ OLA 20.
Hay-Recelpts, "A tous. Receipts were q
little larger today. The market absorbed all
offerings fairly well. but prices are inclined
10 go lower. Old uplands were quoted at ST
@7; new at S919.5J; new timothy nominaily
at S91iO; low grades at S4@6.
