DETROIT. May Close: Cash
wheat was weak on Thursday, and the

weakness In cash wheat was lack or
demand. As far as appearances go the
deal ought 10 be as strong as ever, but
sellers could not get higher prices for
their wheat The frmness In the flu
lures was partly because OF too much
wet weather IN the southwest, where
some low lands are flooded. IL might
also be in part due 20 the coming gov
eminent report. This Is expected 10
be benrlsh. but the discountlng may
have been overdone. The market ~

Tut the stocks were well taken and
there was an up-turn shortly after
the opening which carried prices up
to about the highest point reached yes
terday in some instances even higher.
From this they again reacted. but the
market has shown strength In all de-
partments. Reading has been the feat

it's new high record OF liz. The
strength 90 Reading IN attributed to
tho fact that the anthracite tonnage
