WHEAT-The market is a sensitive one being
largely governed just at present by weather in
dications. Cloudy skies and south winds in the
early morning give an uneasy sy and weaker tone
hours later by bright sunshine. There is time
enough yet for good and seasonable rains,
though believers in dry season are gradually
that the main strength OF the market lies in the
absence of expected rain. Within few days
there has been active demand for Wheat, and
much stock has changed hands on a basis of
81 as q ell for standard quality, there being free
sellers at the price. At the moment there is
slight JUL in the inquiry, but it does not seem to
have affected values Holders insist on the
rate named, while some are asking 81 464 and
will listen to no lower bid A good downponr
well distributed, would materially change mat
