CHICAGO, yan. 2—Material de clines in the wheat market today dur- ing the early dealings resulted from persistent sélling. based on liberal re- ceipts, especially in the northwest and southwest. No aggressive support for prices was in evidence, buyers ap- parently lacking anv fresh incentive for expecting an immediate upturn tn value. Demand for the time being was confined to traders who wished to even accounts ‘on outstanding sales. The opening, which varied from un- changed figures to %4c lower, with May $1.21% to $1.22% and July $1.18% to $1,13%, was. followed by a decided general setback. Subsequently, constant felling pres- sure, notably from houses with east ern connections, carried May down more than 8 rents nder the high point of last week's market. A de: cided increase of the United States visible supply total was announced, and indications of export business was ignored. The close was heavy @ %o to 4%o Gecline, with May $1.18% to $1.18% and July $1.10% to $1.10%. Big arrivals of corn here, more than 1,000 carloads, had a depressing effect on prices for corn and oats. After opening %c to %c lower, May to 72c, the corn market con tinued to drop. Liquidation on the part of holders was of jiberal volume, and the mar ket continued on the down grade in the later transactions. Prices. closed weak at 2%@2% to 2%c net decline, with May 69%o to 69%c. Oats started unchanged to %c up, May 44% to 45, and then underwent a decline all around. High quotations on hogs gave a lift to provisions. T%e Open. High. Low. Close.
