HICH COMMISSIONER'S REPORT. [By Electric Telegraph— copyright) [United Press Association. I The High Commissioner, cabling from London under dale the Bth inst., says:—Blitter.—The market is quieter. The high price is checking business for best quality. The demand is chiefly for best quality, with only a little demand for inferior. There is no change in prices for Australian, Siberian and Argentine. Prices: Danish 130 s to 1325, New Zealand 120 s to 128 s.

Cheese.—The market is firmer, with a better demand for Canadian, hut there is no change in prices. The market is steady for New Zealand white and colored at 63s to 61s. The Canadian cheese stocks at London, Liverpool and Bristol on the Ist November were 306,000 boxes, against 351,000 for the corresponding period last year, but present prices are on par, namely 655. The stock in Montreal on Ist November was 45,406 boxes less than last year. Wool.—The market for tops is easier owing to the scarcity of new business.

FROZEN RABBIT TRADE. (Received 8.15 a.m.) London, November 9. The Trades Gazette states that the damage to recent shipments is. often of a nature not recoverable under the insurance policies. They are not caused by defect in the steamers, but are suggestive either of great laxity by tir incompetence in those grading or passing rabbits. The weakness of the copper market is attributed to heavy liquidation and disappointing trade conditions on both sides of the Atlantic, and also to the Mexican trouble.
