The wheat market opened uneven because or
a weak opening at Liverpool; within 80 min

buIlisiT on the reports OF sharp rally at
Liverpool, based upon wet weather in Argen-
tina. Buying by shorts sent the price OF the

vance was aided by scarcity of offerings.
The market continued strong for the re-

was small because, of delay in the publication
