PROFIT-TAKING GUTS CEREAL GAINS MADE AFTER REPEAL VOTE): Evidence That Crop Damage Is Extending Also Is Strength- ening Factor Chicago, Feb. 20.—(#)—Influenced made fractional price but reacted under profit-taking. Evidence that crop damage was ex- tending in domestic winter wheat was also a strengthening factor. A de- crease of 2,121,000 bushels in the |/s United States wheat visible supply put the total at 147,331,000, against 202,590,000 a year ago. Predictions of cold weather for the the United States winter wheat belt gave emphasis to talk that, with per- sistent drought southwest and other adverse conditions, there was an evi- dent major menace to the crop. Com- petent authorities were quoted as ex- Pressing belief that damage to a great extent had been done and was irre- parable. A handicap to bulls was a large in- crease of the amount of wheat on Ocean passage, both as compared with @ week and a year ago. ‘Wheat closed unsettled at the same as Saturday's finish to % lower, May 47%-%, July 48%-%; corn unchang- ed to % higher, May 25%-%, July 27%-%; oats a shade to % up, and Provisions varying from 7 cents de- cline to 5 cents advance. MINNEAPOLIS FUTURES WEAKEN TOWARD CLOSE Minneapolis, Feb. 20.—(#)—Grain ‘was nervous and slightly stronger in early trade here Monday’ but owing to weakness in the stock market eased off to a slightly lower close. May closed %-%c lower, July %4- 4c lower and September %-%c lower. May oats closed %%-%1c lower, May 4-4 lower and July %c lower. May barley closed ‘sc lower and July 4c off. May flax finished 1\c off and duly %c off. There was more cash wheat in. High test offerings met with ready demand at firm comparative while the lower protein quality had soft spots. Winter wheat demand was fair with offerings very light. Durum demand was limited and only good milling quality of red was really wanted. Cash corn receipts were liberal. Oats demand was fair to good. Rye demand was fair to good and prices averaged firm. Barley offerings were heavier and the general market was a shade easier. Flax offerings were very light and demand was fair to good. eo AT 48% =—46% 1 DHW or New York, Feb. 20.—(?)—Foreign LH.W..... 52% 53% 52% .59%lexchange irregular.
