Chicago, May 7-WHEAT-An easier
tone was manifested in the wheat pit
today owing to moderate selling by pit
traders. Large shipments from Argen-
tina, India. and Australia were the
pricipal weakening influence. The
market opened firm on heavy rains in
the Red river valley and on small re-
ceipts, July being up a shade to A@Ac
at s6sk to s61zc. After declining to $3.50,
the price steadied around S6H 0S6ssc.
Minneapolis, Duluth and Chicago re-
ported receipts of 125 cars against 17S
After selling off to s5Ac, July closed
at S61sc, a loss of nc from yesterdays
final figures.
CORN-The easier tone of wheat
brought out some realizing sales in
corn, and as a result the market was
barely steady. Rain throughout the
west and smaller receipts were sup
porting factors. After opening I'M

Why does q car conductor say Step
