The grain trade is beginning to realize the tightness and scarcity of money and the effect it has on values of grains and on commodities in general. The trans portation situation is also an im portant factor. Speculative buying has become timid by the decline in prices and is holding off. This leaves the markets without substantial sup port and encourages liquidation and short selling. Prices moved irregularly with a lower level established, the distant futures ot corn and oats dropping to the lowest so far this season. The support came mainly from profit takers who had sold and in most instances they reinstated, their lines when they saw values weaken. A great many work for reaction which made a nervous choppy market. In the last minutes of trading a col lapse in wheat started a general downward movement in all grains and made a close at around the low point. Lossea on Corn and Wheat. There were net losses for the day lt, 14c on wheat. 4j60 on corn. l5',ic on oats, 6&6c on rye and lo on bar ley. At the Inside figures wheat was off 2424c. corn 14l5c, oats 617c, rye 14H18o -and barley 9'zbc from the high of last Saturday. Heavy overnight margin calls on corn led to general selling and a weak open lng. Numerous stop loss orders were un covered on the way down, and while many of tho local professionals played for a rally there was an absence of outside support. The Armour Grain company bought all de liveries, but not In sufficient quantities to offs t the break In wheat. There was talk of radically .bearish Argcatlne news, which was said to have influenced a great deal of eastern selling. Crop reports were favorable, although persistent claims of rains being needed are noted from parts of the central west. Cash corn dropped 24c and closed weak with July, although the later closed about 2c over September, and the cash grain-delivered has passed Into very strong hands. Receipts, 131 cars. Absence of Buying. Absence of buying support and Increased selling pressure was apparent in wheat all day. The undertone was easy, despite re ports of 600,000 bushels being sold for ex port. Jackson and Nye Jenks were the best buyers, the latter taking wheat for mills. Armour Grain company, Updike and local traders did the selling. In the , lftK t , few minutes December broke from 2.40 to 2.34 without a trade. The ex treme range covered It, cents end the finish was 11 cents to 2 cents above the low point, there being a quick rally after the late slump. . Cash news generally vfas bearish, and goods to arrive were reduced 17 cents at Chicago, Receipts are increasing,- millers are buying fair quantities, and there 'a plenty of It. Primary reeelpts of 1,312, 000 bushels, compared with 3,303.000 bush elo last year. British bids on wheat at the Oulf were 5 cents out of lino, but the continent was a free buyer, taking 400,000 to 760,000 bushels, In addition to 300,000 bushels to Belgium Monday. Oermany, France, Italy and England were said to have been the buyers of the grain sold today, and there wore more orders in sight. Early August shipment at the gulf was quoted at $2.80 or 6 cents lower than the previous day, and later $2.85 was claimed. . Oermanv tcok 600,000 bushels of rye. After the close sales of wheat were made, from the west to exporters, track New York, at $2.78 for August shipment. Drop In Cash Wheat. Cash wheat prices at termlui'.l markols are declining rapidly, due to large re ceipts and the reduction In eastern bids, Chicago was 35s; Kansaa City, 2(g)6c: St. Louis, 48c, and Minneapolis, 610o lower. No. 1 hard and red winter at Chicago sold at $2.762.80. Practically all of the receipt grade No. 1. Out of 94 cars received 90 cars were No. 1 and No. 2. Bids bb arrive dropped 7c with No. 8 or hard winter, track Chicago, at $2.61 for July, $2.69 for first half of August, $3.54 for August and $2.50 for first half of Sep tember shipment. Liquidation continued In Jul nil, pnrt at the low point It was off 6u from the previous day'Btlose und 17c under the'i nign or last Saturday, The closing break was in sympathy with other (trains. East ern shipping demand was much more ac tlve,,wlth sales-of 260,000 bushels. Sample values 3 0fic lower, with bulk of the No. 2 Wilte at July price and No. 3 white at 110 under. Receipts, 169 cars.

' Russells of New York says export de mand is slow with British commission still out. R. O. Croweil, reporting to E. W. Wagner ft Co., says he believes 300,000,000 bushels an excessive figure for spring wheat yield. He says tho situation Is not bullish, except tho relation of good No. 1 wheat for flour.

Both sides have made concessions and the agreement was signed yesterday. Latest available Information Indicates that there are at least 176,000 bad order freight cars held out of -service on the railroads of the country. Late in the day it was said British were again In tha market for wheat, but bids were, 5 cents out of line. About 260,000 bushels rye worked today. "The leaf-fly digger seems to be work ing westward," says an eastern Ohio dealer in a letter to C. A. King & Co. "Four weeks ago It was in corn In Penn sylvania. Now I feel safe in saying all corn In eastern Ohio down the Ohio river Is ruined. How far west it oxtends I can not say.
