There was a bearish feeling in wheat
all the morning, though the decline was
small. The bulk of trade was quite
large. A great deal of long wheat was
liquidated and an idea of the selling can
be gained from the fact that there were
several millions of weekly and daily puts
from 651l to 65 on all of which there was
an opportunity to buy against. Argen-
tine shipments were large, but about as
anticipated. The main cause of the
weakness is the better tone of
the crop reports now received and the
lower prices and Indifference of English
markets combined with belief that the
government report next Tuesday will
show a large increase in farmers re-
serves over last season.
The situation appears to favor lower
prices but they may be only temporary if
they come.
