CHICAGO. July s-Wheat started
downward during the early dealings
today. the German political and finan-
cial situation being the dominating
west was favorable. There was rath-
er general selling on the declines, but
later fair support of the September
delivery by houses that usually act
for a local interest and some buying
by houses with seaboard connections
tended to check the decline. The
opening, which ranged from 4 cent
to 1s cents lower, with July 1.12N
to 1.131s and September Lin to
112A. was followed by further de-
clines and then by a slight upturn.
Corn and oats were governed by the
action of wheat and on favorable
weather reports. After starting un-
changed to " off. with September
663s to 6612, the corn market declined
slightly. then rallied to around the
initial figures.
oats started u to q down. with
September ss1s to ssA, and later un-
derwent a further sag.
Provisions were quiet, despite high
er quotations on hogs
PotatoeS-Barrel stock strong, trade
holding o; receipts, IA cars; total
United States shipments. s55 cars;
Irish cobblers, operators asking SIS
for leading brand. no sales reports:
sacked stock demand good; market
firm: Kansas sacked early Ohios, No.
1, mostly $50 cwt.
Renewal of commission house pres
sure caused the market to react after
short covering had brought about
somewhat Of a rally. and at the finish
wheat showed a net loss of 1 u to 2A,
with July 1.12 to Lips and Septem-
Der 1.10a to 1.10ts.
Corn acted heavy, with scattered
liquidation in evidence, and the close
was weak, ~ to 2h net lower, with
Septemher 641L to 6d6h
