The wheat market IS in much more
bearsh position than was the case a
week ago. The better movement in the
northwest. due to improved weather
conditions and heavy shipments from
Argentine, were the principal bear fac
tors, but these were supplemented by
active liquidation, of which some was
supposed to represent prominent Chi
cago holdings. There is said to be very
heavy short interest in wheat.

fuences, previously bullish. lost much
