COMMERCIAL.
»i AUCTIONEEBS' REPORTS. The usual -weekly reports from auctioneers on the markets- will be found on page 6 of to-day's Pkess. GRAIN AND PRODUCE. . Since the appearance our usual monthly report on Wednesday last we. have no change of consequence to report in this market. The drooping tendency of wheat is still more pronounced, as holders have been pushing sales at a marked redaction on what they were asking a few weeks ago. New oats are now offering, but of course the market has not settled down, and quotations are difficult to give. Several large transactions have taken place at prices which have not as yet .been made public. No threshed samples of barley have yet been exhibited, but in a week or so new. season's .should be offering. In other lines of this market there is not. the slightest change, and therefore do not call for special comment, ■beyond that the butter market has been eased by a few shipments to London and Sydney.
