BUSINESS was very dull In wheat futures to-
Gay, caused to some extent by the lack OF
movement IN the general markets. May
wheat opened at 71s4c and sold down to
most OF the day. A Liverpool message said
the weakness IN America checks business"
American and Indian wheat were held at an
advance. Stock on passage decreased 10000
cent of the last crop is in the farmers bands.
There was very little doing in any other fut.
ure than May.

Receipts of wheat for the day were I55
cars, shipments 46 cars. Duluth reported 81
cars received. The demand for samples was
SLOW from the start but some OF them were
worked Off at rather higher prices in the fore
part OF the day. Great weakness was felt in
futures later that affected samples unfavor-
anly and made the market drag badly. After
all the lots of samples were quite well cleared
up, most of it having been sold.
