GRAIN AND PROVISIONS

DETROIT, April 30.-Close. The
bears have been blaming England for
day the leading British market de-
clined, giving the bears a chance to
Set into the game.
The Liverpool market was weakened
by lower and more liberal Canadian
offerings and small inquiry for CAR
goes. The short interest had been
eliminated to such an extent that
there was no buying for that account.
The bullish conditions were the war,
bad weather in France and continued
III mness in Argentina.
Bulls on this side feel certain that
Europe will continue a large purchaser
I'll next harvest and there Ia "A general
belief that the present high standing
OF the American crop VIII not be sus-
tanned Any lowering OF conditions
will be buiiish because tht big crop
has been discounted TO great extent.
Buying by mills and exporters has he en-
active so far this week and the wide
difference between Amtrican and l.iv-
erpool prices indicates that prices here
are not likely TO go much lower under
existing conditions.
