Dig decline OF the day before One OF
the eekening features on Thursday

mills
The weakness OF Thursday effected
ehlehy the soft winter wheat markets,
pat all were weak enough. and the
heavy liquidation appears TO have
cleared the atmosphere. For the first
time this season the support OF heavy
chicago houses was withdrawn. on
Friday the early market gave evidence
or some reaction, although there was
nothing new OF bullish nature in the
days dope.
Liverpool reported the American
weakness Offset by heavy cintinental
demand. The continent has been buy
ing heavily I'm the South American mar
kets and much OF the wheat now on
the ocean Is destined for ports other
than British. The active consumption
OF foreign wheat on the continent con-
tinues TO absorb all offerings There
is also bullishness In India cables as
the moisture IL Insufficient and much
or the crop appears certain to be lost.

Foreigners are not buying and II would
take n considerable drop in prices 10
