day nnd at the clusb showed declines of n c
In thu May otitlon and I'/sO In July. The
inurkct wnn nffecteO principally by the de
cline In the Kngtlsh markets. The disposi
tion arnonvhent trnelera to leave that
market for the coarser pr.iln pltfl caused a
decided dec-reuse In the volume of wheat
t null UK. Corn was heavy and declined Uc.
Oats were llrm after early uealsncss nnd
closed n nhudc higher. l'roIslona were Ir
regular , pork declining 17 He. while l.ird and
ribs did not change much.
All the Mrmnoas which characterized
Monday's uheat market had apparen'ly dc-
Bcrlcd the pit at the opening of trading to
day. The Blurting price for Mny ranged all
the way fiom JlOj'/i down to $ t 03V as com.

though of a mixed character , favored the
bulls as u whole und for a time the market
took on Home appearance ot strength.
Covtrlng by shorts started In .1 moderate
way shortly after the opening nnd prices
gradually worked luck , Alny advancing to

provinces were favoiaule , but this was
counteracted by private cablegrams from
Aigervtlne , reducing the estimates on the
cxpoi table wheat surplus of that country to
2ltXX)000 ) bu Additional Htrength was lent
lo July by moderate support from the
belter Interests Trading at no time , how
ever , was very heavy In either option. The
fear of l.Ldter'S Influence ovei the market
was shown by many traders leaving tie
wheat pit for the coarser gialn markets
Noithwewt receipts were not \er > heavy ,
Minneapolis anil Uuluth reporting 3TO cars ,
against 2JO cars last week and 1UO cms a

which .i7 cars were of contract gride. Kx-
