The wheat marks! was bailly Uemoralised to-day, and prices are nearly Sc lower than yesterday’s closing prices. 1%e opening was weak, at 1c decline, and the market continued weak during the first half hour, after which prices firmed up, only to sell off again on free selling by commission houses. The news was lost alght of, everybody wanting to

pell.

Corn was weak. In sympathy with

Wfheat.

Oats were weak and suffered a decline

of a cent.

Provisions were steady and held Arm, closing a shade higher. Brwdatreet'a Review. Bradstreefs report to-day says: The recent check to the activity In general trade, taking the country as a whole, which followed the severe and unusual frosts or t the close of May. has begun to register ’ itself in relatively fewer upward spurts of prices for staples and moderately smaller totals of bank clearings. _ The cereal crop scares which followed the frosts, frightened foreigners out of Wail street for the moment, and since then tne Speculative exchanges and leading commercial houses have been busy trying to determine future values On the basis of present conditions. The exception to the halt Is found in the remarkable exhibition of strength by iron and steel, which, without special orders from railroad and other large consumers, have again advanced all along the line. Exports of wheat (with flour as wheat) from both coasts of the United States r.nd Canada show a surprising decrease, the totit amounting to only 1,781,737 bushels, against _\»9l,000 bushels last week, 2,24,000 bushels in the week a year ago; a,384,000 bushels tyvo years ago; 3,336.000 bushels three years ago and as compared with . 2,343.000 four years ago. Boston, Montreal gud Baltimore report very much smaller shipments of wheat than last week, and N’ewportNNews much less flour. This week’s total wheat and flour shipments appear to have been the smallest sinoa the second week In June, 1891. There have been few changes in the trade situation at the South, but these are In the direction of improved demand, principally in dry goods, shoes, hats ami other seasonable goods, with the prospects for a good fall trade should the crop prospects remain as at present. Dun’s Review says: Failures for the past week have been 34t in the United Btates. against 233 last year, and twenty^our in Canada, against forty last year. CITY WHOLESALE QUOTATIONS.

More goods had been ordered and 'were, to have been in hands that morning, and would have been tf there had not been a freight-wreck just outside the city. “If the goods for our store had not been In^that wreck,” the proprietor said, "there is no telling- how disastrous our accident would have been. We told the employes who had reported that morning that we couldn't use them, because the goods were wrecked, and so they all went home, except one man, who sat In the window and escaped when the floors fell.”
