Wheat Wa dull, and weak 1t 1c decline. The
prosinate cause vas quoted weakness in
York. Tie reM cause, IN ali tree plAees, was WAS
the conviction that the supply will exceed tho
demand &ud the mowIetlge that sellers will be
powerless TO fix prices under such condition
OF thihge. The great forward movement Of
wheat towards market vii soon commence,
and We have nearly four millions of bushels Ii
store to move out md throw upon he Eastern
markets, where 1t does rot appear to be par
ticuinrly wanted. Then the vessel men arc
holding OF, in view Of fle large amounts OF
grain to be moved, and he Indications are that
freights will r!,le high making The cost Of
moving to be a1..ge pei censage Of the selling
a1s Weakening confidence in wheat: l.. and Z The

for the fact that the Efforts took hold rather
freely At tho decline established to-dsE,
