reverses in the war zone sent the
wheat prices tumbling still farther,

options being cents, with loss
OF close to 10 cents since Thursday.

let loose OF their long wheat and
began TO sell short on both May and
July. closing their deals and re-

that there is hardly a firm doing
business on the Omaha Grain ex-
change that has not made $4,000
to $4,000 since the middle OF the
week.
Omaha cash wheat followed the option.

Prices ranged from 20 cents to si.0j per
bushel. a drop OF 1 to cents. Receipts
for the day were lightweight cars
There wero seventy-seven carloads OF
corn on the market and prices were the
steadiest OF any day during the week, the
fluctuation being IA cents Up to 2 cents
down. The prices were 70 to Glk cents
per bushel.
oats were u cent off. selling at q to 42
cents per bushel. The receipts were four.
