an.l fl-i weather has been showery flace
Ratnnlar. . Rome little nrocreas has beoa
made with field work, welch is still behind
hand In some districts. Tbe laaJ, however.
is now ia pood workable condition. Ileports
relatiTe to WJnter sown wheat are ftTorablo
tn thoao districts where it has appeared
above tbe surface. The damp weather it
unfavorable to threshing. Beally dry
aaranlrs are nrac Ileal! r unobUiBabls. i-ren
fair areraee loti are rare. Trade both at
Mark Lane end in tbe country has been ex
ceedingly dull in cocsequsnce ot this acd
the bad condition, and millers would scarce
ly look at English wheit. Last Monday a
decline ot la.2 per quarter was quoted
even on best parcels, the provincial markets
following at.it.
Dense fogc also variously Interfered with
bnticssa in London.
Imports ot foreign wheat into London,
bare been moderate, but at Lirerpool ar
rivals were more liberal. Last Monday's
decline ot Is per quarter has cot been re
covered, as tbe conaamptirs demand was
very small, but there has been no further
redaction. As regards the speculation for a
rise in America, taking i&to consideration
the fact that of American wheat tbe r orpins
is not much, it anything, in excess ot Eu
ropeac needs, it is quite probable that prices
may eventually adjett themselree without a
great rise her or a great fall in America, but
at present tbt question stccu to be simply
who cm bold out longest.
Arrivals at porta of call have been eecsid
erable, (hough red Winter wheats are Tery
scarce. There was great depression early in
the week, but sine J then, owing to an ad
van re in America and a large quantity of
wheat taken from the coast fer continents
ports, prices have advanced Cd to Is per
quarter, with care demand both for the
United Kingdom acd for tbe continent.
There was a fair inquiry fer maixe at aa
advance ef about Cd per quarter. Beyers
ahow no d if position to eater into a forward
