Wheat started a shade higher on some good
buving by prominent local operators and
the destruction of a St. Louis elevator with
I GOO 600 bushels of wheat The opening
was about the same as Saturdays closing,
and prices then advanced &c, became easy
and then declined &c, held steady at the
decline and closed within shade Of the
bottom. Corn opened rather firm and sold
up a fraction, but then turned heavy and
weak. The Oais market was inclined to be
firm and acted so until corn commenced to
break. It then weakened and declined &c
from the high point of the day. Provisions
were remarkably strong on onlya moderate
amount of business. Flour dull and easier;
