COMMERCIAL.
The third of the year's series of colonial wool auctions has been opened in London with a good attendance of home and foreign buyers. The opening catalogue comprised 11,400 bales. The Yarious lota found but slow sale, and the market was very drooping ; the prices realised being generally a halfpenny lower than the closing rates of MayJune series.
The Melbourne manager of the National Mortgage and Agency Co. of New Zealand, (Limited) reports of the.; grain market as follows :— The wheat market is active ; shipping parcels, 5s to 5b Id ; fowls' wheat, 3s 9d to 4s 3d ; malting barley, 5s 3d to 5s Id ; market decidedly firmer. New Zealand oats are in good demand at 2s lid to 3s 2d for feeding, and 3s 2d to 3s 4d for milling qualities ; New Zealand oats under bond, 2s 2d to 2s 6d, a moderate inquiry experienced.
