Cash Wheat Rules Two to Five
Cents Lower When Trad
ers Fail to Agree on
Prices.


Receipts OF all grains were moderately
heavy today but the trade was rather slow
on account OF the failure OF the traders to
agree on prices.
The trade In wheat was dull throughout
the session, but there was an active trade
In corn during the last hour OF the session
and A good part OF the corn samples were
disposed OF before the close. The demand
for wheat, however. would probably have
taken care Of the offerings had the sellers
cared to let 90, but In most instances the
sellers preferred TO hold out for better
prices.
Spot wheat generally was quoted from 2
to &c lower. No. 2 hard selling around 1880

was on last Saturday, while the margin over
the mixed was about the same. Prices on
the commercial grades OF white corn ranged
from i6iGi.6e. yellow corn ruled around
sl,62st Ql.63 and the bulk OF the offerings
OF mixed corn ranged from sl.620162S,
although one car OF high color mixed corn
sold up TO si.6th. The trade In oats was
not very heavy. but receipts OF this cereal
were rather light and the demand was easily
strong enough to take care OF the offerings
at prices ruling about NC lower
Rye and barley were quoted unchafged
and the trade In these cereals was limited
on account Of light receipts.
Clearances were: Wheat and -four equal
to $4,000 bu.; corn, 10000 bu.; oats. $4,000
bu.
Primary wheat receipts were 1.45900O bu
and shipments $4,000 bu. against receipts
OF 1.335.0oo bu. and shipments of 1,l73.000
