THE CROP MARKETS
Wheat and Coffee Irregular
Corn and Oats Higher.

Governed entirely by weather conditions,
which were in the main favorable to the
growing crop, trading in wheat was not
over active, and price changes were mar
row, although there was some feeling
against taking the short side. The close
found July quoted &c higher, and other po-
sitions sc lower than on Tuesday at the
same time. Corn was held firm for futures
by the cash position, and the close showed
advances of Ease. Oats ran up against
an active selling movement, based on re-
ports that there would probably be con-
siderable movement in July, and a drop OF
4n@sc was the result Of the days trading.
Futures I'm coffee received scant attention
yesterday, the attitude Of Brazil and the
demand and supply situation being the CEN
tres of attraction. The cost and freight
market held steady, but some operators are
bearish in their views in order TO keep the
market down. In spite OF this and a heavy
movement In Brazil cost and freight
prices were generally to Is points higher.
In futures July, with about 1900 notices
out, was weak, owing to the volume OF
switches, but the rest of the market was
steady, the close being at points down to
