WHEAT-The market has been quiet, sometimes
Purchases were regulated mainly by the matter of
prices and these in turn were influenced by the
course of speculation in the lake ports. Receipts
there having increased, the tendency has BEEN
downward. Declines have ensued here amountln !.
TO 596c within the week, and not much more than
that during the month. Exporting ID confined
mainly to winter wheat, so that what comes to
market goes to the mills, thus making prices easier
than they might otherwise be. Receipts here
are increasing slowly, as farmers are more disposed
to sell at current values. Settlement day in Chicago
yesterday made dull markets, the influence EXTEND
ing to other points: bids closing here &c off from
Mondays figures, the market being dull, on pros
poets OF enlarged supplies Unless the export de-
mand for wheat extends, there indications that
prices will rule easy. Cash bids Tuesday: Mo. l
