LONDON, November .30th.—The Mark LaneExpress to -day, commenting on the crop prospects, says: Severe frosts in France and central Europe have -stopped plowing and sowing, and eve anticipate a somewhat reduced wheat acreage in the en- tire region between the Vistula and the Bay of Biscay. Winter has set in throughout Rosie. The Sea of Azoff was closed to navigation on November 24th, and naviga- tion of the Baltic ts dangerous on the north- ern and eastern coasts, where there is al- ready much ice. Owing to the rainfall in India; the deficiency in the wheat acreage is reduced, but while famine no longer threat - 'ens, a scarcity seems bound to be felt until the spring of 1898. English whet main- tains a good price in London, but the coun- try marketsare less firm. The cause of this is clear. In the counties last week, 166,684 quarters of English wheat were of- fered for sale, against 69,530 for the same week of 1895.

Liveeeaoe, November 30th.—Cattle— Trade firmer; best States, 5ed ; .Canadianr, 4d; sheep,' 5d. MONTREAL, December 1st.—The excessive supplies demoralized the prices of cattle, and prices dropped about one quarter of a cent per pound, and a considerable,number will have to be held over for another mar- ket. A few of the best cattle were sold at about no per lb, with pretty good stock at :from 210 to 3c per lb ; •common beasts sold at from lee to 2ec and the leaner beasts at frern a little over lc to about lecper lb. - Calves were in brisk demand. Five good calves brought from:$8 to $12 each. Mut- ton critters are lower all 'round: tihippers are paying nearly 21-c -per Th for good large sheep. Lambs are selling in lots at about 3S -c per lb, and a few of the best at about 3ec per lb. Fat hegs are plentiful, and. sell at from $3.75 to $3.95 per.100 lbs. Vale -sem December 2m1.—There was no improvement in the market; it bad been expected that a small beset:less would have been done in export 'cattle, but nothing worth speaking of was effected, as scarcely a dozen shipping cattle, changed hands. . A few shippers will probably be wanted on Friday at from 3ec t� 3ec per pound. The trade in butcher cattle was, if pcssible, worse thamon Friday last. Nothing of any kind of quality that could be termed good was here, and we havea - demand, slight though it be, for some choice i butchers' meat,_ for which fair prices will be given. To -day sales were slow, and prices generally weak; the cooler weather did not make the difference expected • only ta, few buyers were here, and trade dragged terribly. Some good cattle sold at around 21,c per pound, and many sales of ieferior cattle were made around 2c and 2ec. There was much stuff left over. Sheep and lambs were steady. Shipping sheep sold at 2ec to. 3c per pound, and la -nibs at 3ec to ne per pound. Calees are .unchaeged in price, with a slow en- quiry for a few choice veals. There was a steady feeling in the hog market, and for singers $3.85 per 100 pounds- was paid; in fact VI few cases $3.87e was paid. Thiek fat hogs eold at $3.50, sows at $3, and stags at $2 per 100 pounds.
