est price OF the decline was recorded.
Liverpool opening cables were I'D lower,

noted at the start The demand for wheat
became greater as the session progressed,
and at the close the best figures were at

place for shipment to Australia and the
cash demand In this market was very
good. These were the bun props and

vices gave portion of the early loss
regained, material aid coming from that
fact December wheat opened from 76
TO 767Sc, advanced to 7SIAG78ssc, closing at
785c, 19sMl3lc higher than Yesterday.
Cash wheat was strong and 1ha1&c

The opening decline in wheat carried
weakness to corn. but the rally in the
former did not fully repair the damage
previously noted I'm the latter Trading
