snug, low appearance that adds
charm to the cars appearance while

GRAIN MARKET

CHICAGO, July q, Retrospective
breaking up of the next wave north
west brought about lessened anxiety
today concerning black rust and did
much to send the wheat market down
grade Large deliveries of wheat on
July contracts here today, 645,OO0
bushels, acted also as bear influ-
ence. Closing quotations on wheat
we're heavy, 4 cent to IL cents net
lower, with corn 5s cent off, to 11s cent
up, oats at 4 cent decline to B cent
advance, and provisions 2 cents to 25
cents down.
Assertions that European demand
for North American wheat is about
the poorest ever known at this time
of the year, added to the burden of
holders in the wheat market as the
day drew to an end. Besides, primary
receipts were larger than year ago,
for the first time in quite while.
Moreover, sales of wheat into store
here were large and the world avail
able supply showed an increase of
1,193,00O bushels at the corresponding
