En Only Light Trading

AH C'tsy AtSNt sutaGstS
With only a moderate trade the trend
of the wheat market on Saturday was
lower and prices at the close showed
2N to SIC net decline. Export in
quiry was still reported in the market,
and Baltimore said there was a good
demand for all the wheat offered but
that the country was shipping in little
grain.
Some hedge pressure was noted at
the West, and there was also more or
less liquidation based on the mere
peaceful news from the other side.
Cash markets ruled quiet and there was
some selling by cash houses in the
West on prospects for an increase in
the movement. Generally speaking, the
trade was without feature and the mar
ket seemed to be more of an evening
up affair than anything else.
The cash market here was barely
steady, with No red and No. hard
quoted at $3.50 and No. mixed durum

was unusually good aside from the crops

at all of any previous drought or heat
experience and that present moisture was
ample. Good rains were noted pretty
much over the belt on Saturday, but a
of possible frost talk over Sunday. which
caused some of the early buying and
advance
The movement continued light. but did
not appear TO have much effect on senti-
ment in view Of the crop news.
