WHEAT-There is a moderate export move
ment, which is almost sure to increase as the
season wears along. Prices are low, but grow
ers seem inclined TO meet the situation and
shippers are able to I'LL all requirements with
cut trouble No. ! shipping Wheat is quota
bic at 661l0S714c = etl. though something OF
fancy character might bring 8sszc, which is
the extreme OF the market just now. Fol

and quotations are somewhat easy at a range
Of 81 to 81 o5 3 ctl.
BARLEY-The immediate outlook is moi
particularly encouraging for the selling inter
est Offerings of Feed are IN excess OF the de
mand, and transactions are rather slow
Moderate inquiry prevails for Brewing de
scriptions, while Cheyalier that comes up to
export requirements continues to receive good
attention.
OATS-The market shows no spirit trade
being extremely dull during the past few days.
New crop is coming ia with greater freedom
and very soon there win be shipments from
Washington and oregon. Buyers apparently
take these facts into consideration, as they dc
very little canvassing of offerings just now,
doubtless presuming that in the near future
they VIII be able TO operate 10 better advan-
tage.

GIlCeS are generally weak. UNIONS SOku at al
advance. Potatoes are in liberal supply anu

DRIED FRUIT-Lively times are expected

any very large crop OF Peaches, circum-
