There was quite general selling for a time | and the market was decidedly weak, but later local traders turned buyers and a better tone developed, Influenced to a large extent by small receipts and continued reports of dam- age to the European crop. Toward noon the market became quiet and prices eased off, May declining to i6%c and July to 70%e. A sharp advance occurred during the last hour on heavy buying by the Armours, who are eir 1ine, the most of to-day's purchases con- sisting of the July delivery. A good export demand was also &n influential factor late in the day. After selling up to 77%ec May closed July touched Ti%c and Weakness in wheat and unresponsive cables, together with more favorable weather, caused weakness in corn at the opening, and although the strength in wheat later In the day was reflected in the coarser grain the May do- livery was little affected and ruled weak the greater part of the session.

July closed e lower at 44%e. The improved weather and the weakness in corn and wheat brought out liberal selling | orders in oats at the opening and the mar- ket ruled weak.

The continued demand to the north of us has also helped materfally in holding prices to the pres- ent range. Other than this trade thers has Dbeen a continual drafn on the country ware- houses for local use, and on account of what Hay has been shipped to interior points would read like sending coals to Newcastle. This country demand will probably continue but little longer, but the northern trade will run well into our new season, for the northern harvests are much later than ours. “‘Consldering the present state of affairs with reference to supply and demand, it is really remarkable that prices do not advance. With many close observers it is still a great mat- ter of doubt as to whether we will have enough Hay to carry us through the season comfortably. As long as holders are Inclined to ship freely, however, there can be no ad- vance.” BRAN—$19 50§20 50 per ton. MIDDLINGS—$26@28 per ton. SHORTS—$20@21 per ton.
