In the meantime, through constant production and di- unfinished consumption, the copper market became top heavy sur plus of between 900, 900, 900 and 1.00o,- 000.000 pounds of copper accumulat- ed. This supplied no sesy promising foundation for a bull movement i'll copper stocks. But on April l the big producers announced a policy of immediate curtailment.

~CHICAGO, June 3.-General selling on the part of houses with eastern connections led to a sharp break in wheat prices today after values had again touched a new high record for the season. It was said the contin- ued upturn in quotations had made exporters hesitant. Besides. weather conditions appeared to give some ad- vantage to the bears. and there was considerable disposition to regard re- cent estimates of the 1921 yield as too small Opening prices. which varied from unchanged figures to Ac high CT. July s1.40sz to s1.41A were fol- lowed by quick setback to s1.3S.
 Corn was depressed by a renewal of large receipts. the arrivals here being estimated at TOO cars After opening unchanged to ssc lower. including July at 66H to 67c. the market under went material sag all around.
 Oats declined in sympathy with other grain. starting Is to Ac up July AZ to 42lsc and then dropped to well below yesterdays finish.
 Lower quotations on hogs pulled down provisions.

puN,s REPORT

NEW YORK, June 3.--Duns to- morrow will say: Another month has passed without general recovery in business but conditions are steadily working toward a stronger and sounder basis. Changes that are es- sential to revival have long been in progress and there IS hope that a more decisive turn for the better will be witnessed after the ending Of sum mer With special causes for hesita ton, the present situ:ition is marked by waiting in many quarters. the dis position being to defer important ac- ton until necessary adjustments have been extended. While excep- tions to this policy appear in certain &hstances where liquidation has seem 1ngly been completed, the attitude of most buyers ia reflected in their per- sistent disinclinati0n to operate be- yond immediate requirements. future price considerations being factor. That the yielding in some commodi- ties has been checked is evidenced by the smaller number of declines in Dun's list of wholesale quotations but the prospect of additional recessions is assigned a reason for the with holding or demands In not few lines and this phase is still prominent in the great iron and steel industry.
