Market Quotations In Full.


BALTIMORE, May u.-Following are
today's quotations in the local wholesale
provision and grain market:
Wheat-Stock in elevators, 6O0,933 bus
The market for Southern was quiet and
prices were nominaliy easier in sympathy
with Western. Receipts We're light and
the demand was not urgent. The few
hundred bushels offered were sold on pri-
vate terms and did not furnish any guide
to the market. Quote: No. red, nomi-
nally easier at 7Sizc
Western wheat opened easier; May 1874
G7Sc. Foreign markets were all easier,
and speculative centres were without de-
cided feature. Extreme dullness was in
control of the situation, there being only
an indifferent enquiry, while there was
at no time any inclination to press wheat
for sale. Cash and May ruled about 7724c
inclined to be bearish regarding the far
options. Private cables very quiet.
Market closed weak. Spot May, 779sc
bid; June, TIC bid; July, 74c bid.

50ikc. Cob steady at s2.G0Q2.65 per Dbl

corn of consequence came out on the de-
cline, though May reached 4714@471ac, with

weak and the market lacked support. Ex-
po.t demand was small and did not take
