lation were witnessed 10 traulng on 'Chthke
to-day. The regular session was mafkeh ul
great weakness. frantic unloading OF long
wheat and some evidences Of heavy "short'
selling. This was due 10 the pcaceiul tenor
OF the cables and the report that the Car had
personally sought an hmlchule uhlerhlauu-
ing with England. The market for June
wheat dropped 20 81 Sc, or nearly sc under
the high prices Of Tuesday, The reaction
was great In the afternoon, when the official
denial OF Gladstone iu the House Of Commons
became known. and the market rallied nearly
2c from the bottom, WIN strong iceilnf on
the curb. The receipts were smaller WIN
large clearings from the sea0Oari. The crop
reports do not improve in tone, but hli else
save war appears 90 be ignored by the traders.
The corn market was duh and heavy on the
regular board, but the greater portion OF Che
decline was recovered ia the afternoon Large
receipts and a severe decline in the other !
