There was a weak feeling in wheat from
the outset yesterday, but after trading began
futures held fairly steady for the first hour,
later declining fraction. A small export de-
mand and large receipts in the Northwest
were the weak features. Cables came i'll
steady at first. and then weak ana lower The
amount on passage increased 900. 600 blu
according to one authority, and 100000
bu according to another. There was fair de-
mand for wheat at the decline most of the
day. December opened at 7Slec May. Sac;
and December had fallen to TS1sc at noon.
with May at S37Sc. Cash wheat was held
pretty firm at first, which prevented elevator
buyers from operating. The large arrivals
held purchasers back. On the other hand,
damage reported in sections of the winter
wheat country was an offset. Some feared
an expected supplemental government crop
report that might upset all former calcula-
tons.
