to saturdays closing but soon sold of. For an
hour and half the trading was more lively but

were light. The premium between May and July
widened TO about 2i4 as against &c spread at
the close saturday. The weakness was due to
a variety OF causes, but primarily TO an increase OF
$40 ,000 in the amount on the ocean passage and
to rumors of rain on tie Pacific Si"pe. The bears
threw what discredit they could upon the condi-
ton of red winter Wheat held here. 1t was
