I northwest had favorable weather for
| the marketing of wheat, but the gem
eral situation did not show enough
| chanse to effect prices in either di-
| rection.
Il Is noted that several prominent
Chicago houses have in the past few
days changed from the hear To the
| bull side OF the market. The general
| trace wonders why and the only rea-
son advanced is a belief that the big
| crop has been discounted. that II has
had all the bearish effect II lis entitled
| 10 nave on prices. The condition has
certainly been known long enough tn
LEI dealers adjust their views with
relation to II.
Firmness in Winnipeg caused an
increase In support In the Liverpool
market Arrivals We're light and little
wheat was offered Manitoba wheat
was 11d lower and higher prices were
quoted for American and Platte car
goes. Supplies of winter wheat are
nearly exhausted and the~c is a gem
eral Improvement in demand. Eng
lsh country markets are strong and
| arrivals OF native wheat disappoint-
ing
Tho quality of Detroit wheat re-
ceipts ia showing some improve
ment. There is more contract grain
and less dampness, although some OF
the sample stun liz pretty bad owing
TO rust. Demand for cash wheat Is
rather slack. Eastern mills are talk
ing some of the best grain, but their
needs are not so urgent az n few
days ago. Exporters are not in the
market at present
Eastern export demand Is slow,
| Foreigners are taking little Mani
toba wheat, not enough to give the
| market any strength.
Wheat advanced 1c early and lost
| VI later. At the close May was ~
| lover and tho other deals unchanged
compared with Mondays close.
