CHRISTCHCJRCH CORN EXCHANGE. Report for the week ending Friday, lltb. September : — Wheat is steadily moving off, but prices have now adyanced, owing to the large quantities of second quality stored on owners' account, and which is being constantly offered without business being done. Prime hard milling, which is not very plentiful, is firm at 2s lid to 3s Id, the demand being chiefly for local requirements. Tuscan has a fair enquiry for shipment at a penny less. Second quality is still offering in abundance at from chick wheat prices to 2s 6d, but buyers decline to go beyond orders already on hand, millers' stocks of this class being heavy. Whole chick wheat (fit to ship) finds buyers at 2s Id to 2s 2d. Oats : Bright heavy feed and milling are scarce and command full rates of la lid to 2s; whilo slightly discolored short faed are wanted for shipment at Is 8d to Is 9d. Inferior kinds are taken up locally at Is 6d to Is 7d. Barley is without animation, and prices are nominally at our last quotations.
