Chamber Of Commerce.

The crowd turned in sentiment, and was
inclined to take the bear side yesterday in
future wheat trading. While it is mostly ad-
mitted that the situation is greatly changed

July wheat here has held above May all the
way through, though the late activity in the
latter reduced the difference to similar pre-
MUM, the difference being under &c. illinois
reports of crop damage were of a serious
character, and some stated that half the
winter wheat would be plowed up. Liver
pool was strong and higher for wheat and
flour. A few local longs bought quite freely
