The wheat markets were very quiet, with
improved weather and seeding progressing
well in the north. Cables were generally
weaker although there was little change in
quotations. The receipts of winter wheat
are larger at some points, and Toledo said
farmers were marketing better. In st. Louis
there was more of q bullish element than in
New York, as the latter is supposed to be
governed more by the easy feeling abroad.
AT one time i'll the day report of big decline
in French stocks started buying with all up
ward market, but the basis for the report
could not he established. The cash wheat
market was dull. Receipts were larger, but
considerable went direct to mills, being ap-
piled son sales made previously to arrive.
Local milers were holding off, expecting 10
buy cheaper. No. | northern sold slow at
SAC. Only few cars were sold at that price
and they were sold early in the day. Late in
the session fair No. northern was offered at
S3c. with no buyers The premium over July
was smaller. A good many cars were sold to
arrive at S3l2c. which was about 1l2c over
July. Offerings were free at lac premium.
