wheat Opened Up Strong, But De-
cIined at the Close.

On the prospect of more rain in the winter
wheat country and after the advance on the
curb after the close Friday, wheat opened
up quite strong at about where it left off
Friday and for time held steady. Then, on
a little selling the price sagged off little
and then on few buying orders from the
country there occurred a small decline to
the close.
The cash wheat he'd up we'll notWithstand-
ing the fact that it was Saturday and many
millers were out of the market buyers on
account of their large holdings of wheat on
track.
