BETTER TONE TO THE WHEAT
MARKET.
No Change in Spot Rar1ey-Fair
Call for Feed-A Better
Feeling in Oats.

advance at Chicago and the absence of
rain have also aided in the upward ten
dency. No changes in spot Barley; fair
call for feed othing doing in brewing; op-
tions have advanced. There is better
feeling in Oats; the market is more active
and receipts are smaller than expected in
consequence holders are firm and prices
have an upward tendency. No changes in
Corn; market is still dull and weak, par
ticularly on Yellows. Rye is firm at ad-
yanced prices.
Hay is unchanged; were it not for the
comparatively heavy receipts to-day prices
would no doubt have advanced. No
changes in Bran and Middings.
Fair call for fancy Apples5 cold-storage
stock brings more than our prices. Slow
sale of Oranges. An auction sale was held
to-day by the Exchange.
Butter market is steady at previous
prices; considerable coming in, but there
is fair outlet and prices are sustained
Old Cheese is nominal; very little here
Eggs are quite steady; store are well
cleaned up and fractionally higher.
