DtTNEDIK, Wednesday.—The position of the market has not in anyway improved, but rather the reverse, the Australian markets showing no inciiiTation to respond to the prices which have been ruling lately locally. There is also a falling off in the demand, more particularly in respect to the inquiry for milling sorts, which is now very much less active. Arrivals, however, are small, and v ith only a very moderate quantity held on growers' account, prices are not likely to fall to any appreciable extent. Meantime, buyers are not disposed to operate at prices lately obtaining. Quotations : Best feed and milling. 2* to 2s Old : medium to good.
