The WcchS Trading
All trading points report that the week
opened with continued, steady and hrm
market for wheat, bus when adv!ees were
received OF abundant vsin in California the
markets broke somewhat and appeared
weak for little time. The decline was
soon checked, however. and prices steadied
again under the influences OF the uncertain
outlook resulting from the reports OF the
condition Of the growing wheat in the Mid.
die States, and q comparatively active eI-
port demand at the seaboard-shipments
thence being larger during the week than
for some time past. During the last few
days Of the week the tone has been irregu.
lar, with frequent slieht fluctuations, and
with no decided features IN the trade. Fui-
Ter and more complete developments OF
crop prospects will be the deciding iniu-
ence in the market, for the next few weeks
visible supplies aud reserves on hand be-
ing sufficient to check any material al
vance, unless the outlook for the growing
wheat becomes go discouraeing rs 10 stopa
thoroughly speculative movement.

Nearly all trading: points report q de.
crease in the receipts OF corn, still the
movement Is regarded as fair, with . de-
cidedly larger proportions grading No. IN
the Cbicsgo market Latest reports from
interior points rather indicate further de-
crease in the movement, especially In Ne.
braska, which has furnished Q large share
OF the supplies Of late. The reports to-
night show that there hts been further
in9rchse Of /, 500. 90 bushels in the visible
supply In the United SatoA On some Of
the Western lines OF railroads there arc
reports of considerable aocumulations In
cribs, but the amount ~ small compared
with that in crib last year and in previous
average years.
