wheat to-day, and the market ruled quiet
within lower range Of prices. FluctuationI
were not severe. July ruled somewhat irregu
lar, within q range of 20, and closed about S,
lower thar Wednesday. The deferred futures
opened x6azc lower, then advanced 1zllNc
again eased of, and closed 1k0s<c lower thar
Wednesday.
The decline was attributed principally to tn;
weakness in ST. Louis, which market predicted
large receipts of new wheat by Monday. and re
ported two-thlrds of that arriving now as grad
ing No. red. The weather. too. was more IA
vorable, being dry in the Southwest and rainy
in the Northwest Reports from the Nerth
west were more favorable regarding crop pros
poets, and this was a weakening feature. Cable
advices, however, were favorable to holders.
Only moderate business was transacted in
corn the range being narrow and most of the
trading confined to local operators The feel.
ing around the opening was somewhat easier,

siderable degree by the good shipping demand.

lower than Wednesday.
