1192 - L. Aug. 15:4/6 - In the grain market there is the same dullness
and inactivity as has prevailed for the past ten days.
After the New York report was read at the board of trade, there was
a firmer feeling in wheat and a better demand for city and interior
millers, but nothing to show a decided improvement in price or demand,
as there was no shipping demand. Inquiries were confined to the choic-
est samples on the track and the prices obtained would hardly be a
fair criterion of the state of the market. (3)
