CHICAGO, January 20-From decided de-
preston at the opening the wheat market
recovered little interest in early hours
and gained a good deal later on. The cables
reported the English markets AT London
and Liverpool weak aud lower. and al
though the opposite condition OF affairs
would have had little effect in strengthen
inc they being controlled so thoroughly by
bearish sentiment. this declining tendency
in ENGLAND was the cause of perfect rush
To Get rid of long wheat and sell some short
at the opening. The news which came to
hand after the earlier dispatches had given
the market its usual opening was IN favor
of the other psrty. VIM. Dunn had dis
match from Antwerp advising damage TO
The plant in Europe from frost, and accom-
panied by an order TO buy. Numerous
New York messages conveyed the same IN
formation as coming TO the senders IN their
European cables These items gave the
shorts a bad half hour toward the close,
and the market closed with snap NJ inc
