DETROIT. March i7.--Close some
unfavorable crop reports came over
shorts to cover. 1t doesn't take much
Of damage report to scare short
There were plenty Of good reports and
the crop appears TO he I'm fine con-
The Liverpool strength came from
an improved milling demand In Dng-
land and fewer Manitoba offers for
epring shipment. Good wheat Is hrm-
~ held everywhere In Europe. The
failure of the American market to de-
Bearishness was found in the large
increase in the European Visible sup
ply. Crop advices throughout Europe
are favorable and arrivals liberal.
Corn In Liverpool did not show much
Chicago complained of no support n
condition that has been troubling
wheat all season. The foreign situa-
tion was strengthened little by some
iabcr troubles In Australia that were
holding up the loading OF wheat for
export. There In quite fleet OF ships
awaiting cargoes The European visible
week. The American wheat movement
10 not active and the fact that the
visible supply Increased shows how
slack demand has been. Miiiers are
doing In export business. Millers re-
port hating demand for hour. Bakers
and dealers are not buying, fearing a
slump because OF the fine outlook for
spring acreage.
