No. l hard, on track, SIC; No. l northern.
June. 77l4c; July. 77ssc: September, nc: on
track, 7SS4c; No. northern, on track. 100
75c December wheat closed at 79l2c.
Wheat Futures-Wheat opened weak and
lower again, due to the same general causes
that produced the break Saturday.
Stocks in this country ana af1oat decreased
in the last month nearly 16o00,o00 bu, while
there was an actual increase in wneat and
flour supplies in Europe. The increase was
in France mainly. Of course, cargoes were
heavy in London today, and wheat for ship
ment to other ports was neglected. with gen
eral feeling easier. The early demand for
July in the local market was active, carrying
first prices up from the opening TO cover
short sales.
CASH WHEAT.
The cash wheat market was slow yestetday,
owing to the large amount of poor wheat on
the tables that was very difficult to move.
Receipts over Sunday were 5S7 cars. with IS
shipped out. No. l northern sold fairly to
local millers at 7Si2c to 79L2c, with most of the
early sales 79Gl1914c; No. 2 sold principally
at 74I2@75c, and No. 8 at 6G@TDc; rejected
and no grade were in large supply and dull.
Anything that was tough was almost un-
saleable Considerable shock threshed
wheat was offered thst was hard to sell at
over SOC for best, and lots that had any rotten
kernels in them were neglected if held over
40c.
FIour-The added daily output of the mills
grinding yesterday will probably aggregate
81 900 bbls Shipments 50, $50 bbls; quoted at
81 2004.50 for first patents; 81. 4.1G@4.20 for
second patents: S33C@35O for fancy and
export bakers; S1.3GGl2. ID for low grades in
bags, including red dog.
Flour was dull and the market weaker, al
though the sales that have so far been made
on this break have been nearly on the basis
of prices before the break of the last two days
occurred. Perhaps little good Minneapolis
patent may have sold at the basis of 81. 20,
while yesterday it could have been obtained
quite freely at that Of some millers at least.
The stock in this country is smaller than it
was a month ago by some 0,0O0 bbls, but
there Is very little more desire, apparently,
to buy forward than there was then, as the
market has not encouraged that plan Of buy
ing. SHs
Bran and Shorts-Shipments. 1.049 tons.
Quoted at SS.75S925 for bran, S.. 7509.75 for
shorts and Si0010. so for middlings. Millstuff
was weak. in line with other feed. The sales
were from about $3.50 bulk to SS75. Bulk lots
were not in good demand. and sack stuff had
to offer at the prevailing low price to make it
inviting to buyers. Common shorts and bran
were on about the same low plane of prices,
with fine shorts going at 25@75c above. Buy
ers for reselling complained of the light de-
mand they had for prompt shipment.
Corn-Reeeipts 29, $40 bu; shipments, II, $50
bu; quoted at 40la041c for good dry No 8,
40lsc for No. yellow. 32057c for dry No. 8,
and no grade, 3C6135c. Corn broke with wheat
and oats this morning in general markets.
and July sold down ic. There were fair ar
rivals again. and the feeling was that the
market was low enough to buy samples along
about 41041i2e for Nos. 3 and 3 yellow. When
the 1c rise occurred in July sample dealers
were encouraged.
Oats-Receipts, 36,050 bu: shipments, IL, 420
bu; quoted at 3e@3OIsc for No. white. 200
29iSc for No. 3 white, and erase for Nos. 2
and 8. Oats were in pretty fair supply, and
broke sharply at the start. Later the rise OF
wheat and the rise of corn helped the rise in
oats. that came originally, from the same
cause-a reaction from the heavy depression
