Holders of Long Nervous
Over Talk of Govern
mental Interference.
Good Demand on Decline.

CHICAGO, Jan. 1e-Fresh selling OF
wheat sent the market down again at
the opening today. Holders OF long
wheat were nervous and sentiment was
Influenced by fears Of governmental in
terierence, larger receipts than had been
expected In the Northwest and good
SHOWS over the winter wheat belt. There
was a fairly good demand on the de-
cline. The English market showed
tendency to go lower because Of freer
Plate offers at decline OF Sd and a
falling OFF In the demand. II Is be-
lleved that English millers are well
stocked. Prospective arrivals in Great
Britain are liberal Plate and Indian
offers are freer. There have been good
rains In India, Wheat in the United
Kingdom is suffering from wet weather
and prospects are not favorable. Com
plants are being received from France
because of excessive rain.
In Germany there is lack of snow
covering and millers are buying direct
from growers. The weather and crop
news from Russia is not good. and little
grain Is moving
provisions were quiet and easy.
Leading Futures ranged as fnlIova.

investment issues were hard, especially
the war loan, which was quoted at 94Ss.
Investment buying was generally slim
