Lowering of cash wheat premiums and the fact that export busi- ness dropped off entirely owing to yes terdsy's advance in prices also had an effect
 Outside purchases in the pit were less extensive than on the former day and there was an absence of aggressive buv- ing. The close was weak with wheat 1 1-2 to lower; corn l to 1-4 down and oats 3-s to 1-2 lower Corr ad- vanced early only to react later to under yesterdays finish, large countrx<offerinc and hedging sales being factor com bined with a drop of quarter to 1-2 in premiums in the sample market.
 Oats were stronger early and lower later with other grains. The outside trad ing was light.
