BOSTON, July 1O.-The wheat markets OF
the country have not essentially changed
from the position they held one week ago.
Early in the week just past, the heavy de-
liveries on July contracts, the largest In
years, We're the principle features OF tne
speculative branch of the market, ana
caused a somewhat depressing eHect'
Since then the markets have been qulet,
the dullness being enhanced by the inter-
vention of holiday.
The tone of the markets most OF the
time was weak and nervous fluctuations,
while not being very serious, being never
theless FREQUENT, and thereby making a
very uncertain and irregular market. 10
ward the close of the week there was
greater firmness shown and prices made
some small G. ms.
There has been little more of life in the
-four market, but not enough to call Tor
anv very extended comment. The demand
has been better during the week, ana DDS
have been received from sources where
none were available for month past
There is no Aush of orders in the coffee
market. Roasters say that they are having
a very good trade, but could easily handle
| more business if it came their way. Inc
markets throughout the country are
| quiet, and the movement Is mostly or the
| hand-to-mouth kind. The market for Rlo
and Santos grades is fairly steady, though
the increase in the worlds visible supply
of 29, 900 bags on July was somewhat OF a
| surprise to the trade.
The receipts for the crop year of 1894 to
! 1895 have proved large of Rio and Santos
| grades, aggregating 6.7O7, 900 bags, but the
quality has been poor, and much below
the average, the scarcity OF high grade, de-
| sirable coffee being one OF the features OF
the year.
The demand for sugar has improved
and has been quite good. The market is
strong, and all offering has been taken at
81 cents for rs degrees test centrifugal,
and at 2T cents for fair refining. The
London cables last quoted cane steady.
