acted in wheat to-day at variable prices. Inc
feeling was rather unsettled, the market early
showing considerable strength, and later was
weaker The opening was ss@1lc higher than
Saturdays closing eased off temporarily, and
then sold up &c then declined Mc, and July
| closed the same as Saturday. The more de-
ferred futures closed 1S@1zc lower. June ad-
vanced l11Sc, and closed &c higher than Satur-
day.
The advancing tendency early was attributed
| to the weather, whicAwas again cloudy and
rainy The weather bulletin showed rain
throughout the West and Southwest and this
| induced the covering of shorts as well as buy-
| ing from other sources. But private adv1ees
denoted clearing weather. The weather at
present in the Southwest forms quite an I'M
| portant item as harvesting is in progress. The
| visible supply was about what was generally
| expected though less than some parties had
! calculated upon.
Quite an active trade was witnessed In corn
during the early part of the session, after Wnlcn
| amore quiet feeling prevailed. A frmer feel
ing was developed and transactions were at
higher prices. The better tone was attributed
! to the wet weather and smaller arrivals. The
! market opened at SATURDAYS closing prices,
was firm, and advanced sake, eased on lzQ
! sc. became quiet, closing shade higher than
| Saturday
| Oats are moderately active, stronger and
! prices advanced 1S63$sc early in the session on
| fair purchases by shorts, who became scared at
the advance in corn and reports of bad wealth
er. Later, Quietness prevailed and prices re-
ceded slightly. and last sales were at almost the
same as on Saturday.
Comparatively light trade was reported in
the market for hog products. OUTSIDE parties
forwarded very few orders and local specula-
tors were Indifferent about trading to any ex-
tent. Changes in prices were slight and the
bulk of the business was in evening up small
trades
