consequence, sufficient long stuff was Of
Tered to depreSs the price of September
from sc to &c. There was a steady
country demand, however, and a rally
from 5On5OSsc, the opening figures to
6ilsc ensued. Proft-taking caused a frac-
tlonal setback, but sentiment gradually
became decidedly bullish on numerous
damage claims which came in a flood
from the corn belt Finally, the impress
sion became general that the rains last
night had been little better than local
showers in scattered districts, and a rush
of buying sent September to 52c. The
close was strong, 11sc over yesterday at

zone had been beneficial remained an i'm
-portant influence In the wheat market
throughout the session, its potency being
at the opening, when September sold from
Ssc TO 7sc lower at 679sc to 673sc. Buy
ing, largely for the Southwest, caused a
rally to 6S1sc early, but, in sympathy
with weakness in the markets of the
Northwest, a further decline to 67Hc fol-
lowed. Later damage claims from the
spring wheat territory the strength Of
the coarse grains and heavy export sales,
resulted in a rally to 6SAc and the close
was firm, 1sc lower, at 6S1bc. The mar
ket was not a large one, and feeling was
nervous, under conflicting weather re-
ports. Exporters reported 80 loads taken.
