Early Advance Lost.
CHICAGO : Trade in wheat was very
light to-day and mostly local. Prices declined
to point 5sG3<o lower than Saturdays closing
The opening was A@5sc lower, and with only
slight changes receded 5se more, ruled steadier,
improving Kc, closing about H@Ac lower than
Saturday. Crop reports continue favorable,
with exception of points in Indiana, Illinois
and Tennessee.
Corn ruled rather quiet but comparatively
firm, and prices fuctuated within zc range,
closing a shade higher than on Saturday.
Oats were quiet and steady, with small
changes in price.
Trading was only moderately active in hog
products. Under the influence of liberal re-
ceipts of hogs and a further decline IN prices
there was an inclination early to sell for future
delivery, and prices ruled lower. At the de-
cline the demand slightly improved and prices
rallied, but toward the close the market weak
ened and the advance was lost.
The leading ruIures ranged as rolows
