weakness of wheat at Liverpool gave
q new jolt early today to wheat prices

The Liverpool declines were accom-

tually no consumer demand for wheat
was evident either for immediate or
future delivery. F'avora hle crop con
ditions for domestic Winter wheat
tended also to promote selling and to
depress values. Chicago opening fig
ures, 81 to 17S lower, May, new. 1.57
to 1.577s and July 1.3Sa5 to 1895,
We're followed by numerous huctua-
tions within range of about | cent.
Corn and oats svmpathized with
wheat weakness. After opening q
to Il lower, Nav 1879 To- 1885, corn
rallied and then Sagged.
Oats started unchanged 70 i high
