bullish character of the Government crop re-

were unchanged to ac higher at SIC to S7$c.
1t did not take long to minimize the effect
OF the low condition of the winter wheat as
shown by the official figures when conditions
prevailing since April i were taken into con-
sderatioil. In the opinion of many traders
sufficient rain had fallen during the first

ficeneies shown in the Government report.
AS e result of these opinions there was a
tendency TO sell. Bearish sentiment was az
centuated by the downward course of prices
in the corn pit. AS the session advanced the
wheat market became extremely weak Re-
ports from the Northwest stated that the cash
situation there in a very demoralized
condition. Additional force to the reports was
given by heavy selling orders credited to
houses with Northwest connections. An in
crease of nearly two million bushels in the
worlds visible supply also had a depressing

closed with prices at the low point. May

a sharp break in prices were the features of
trading in corn. July corn closed at 1910

Bntter, Cheese and Eggs.

Ranch Eggs rule steady. and though re-
