GRAIN AND PROVISIONS

DETROIT Feb. S--Close: A weak
market was expected from Liverpool
when the days statistics were seen
showing very large increase In the
quantity OF wheat on passage and
large total exports for the world for
the past week.
The point that gave the bulls en-
enlargement was the easy way In
absorbed by consumers showing how
necessary are the big exports to the
miilcrs OF the continent. Wheat Is
RAISING out OF right rapidly In both
plenty OF demand for everything offer
ed. Political news continues 10 work
against a decline in prices. Liverpool
noted a continuation OF heavy Amer
lean exports and also liberal offerings
or wheat from South America but the
market was held up By the active de-
and and large consumption
At home the demand for wheat IL
not large and stocks are quite heavy
Early in the day dealers were LOOKING
FOR a small decrease IN the visible sup
ply. Nothing has been done In export
sales for the past two weeks, but ex-
ports have continued on liberal scare.
The fact that no new business Is pass
INK lends TO belief that the clearances
will soon show "a decrease that Will
help the bears. One feature or strength
is the fact that there are numerous
bulls ready 10 buy every time there is
n moderate slump. The market Is still
ia n rut and IL seems that a crop dam
axe scare OF large proportions or more
lighting inEurope will be needed TO
cause activity.
