$l8.5O@21 t. o, b., the latter for choice.
WHEAT-Weakness and dullness were the lead
ing features of this market yesterday The rea-
sons for the inactivity were the same previously
stated-smai offerings, declining prices and small
demand from local millers. At the opening on
81. l2lo was bid for No hard May and ST .OS for
No 2 hard. Sellers asked S1.O9 for No. hard.
No. Northern was quoted about the same as No.
2 hard: No. 2 Northern, S1.0501.O6: Southern,
sc below Northern Of the grade: low grades
were weak and dull, selling mainly by sample.
CoBN-There was no traiing in this cereal yes
terday. Present holders were not inclined to sell
the present weakness prevails would compel them to
submit to a drop. This they are inclined to fight
against to the extent of not throwing their holdings
upon soft market. Nominaly the market price
was Sic for No 2, and if is doubtful If any could
have been bought below that. Yet there were no
bidders at that
OATs-The offers to sell were fuller and prices
about l2c lower-39I 80 l2c for No. 2 in store. A
Car Of No by sample brought 40c on change.
