Demand for wheat to deliver on May contracts here had seemingly come to a holt, and with chances great ly diminished for a month end squeezec. something of a general rush to sell was witnessed. The market closed unsettled 1-2¢c to 4 1-4c net lower, with May '91.28 to $1.28 1-2 and July $1.21 3-4 to $1.2J -3 In a series of price breaks which fol- lowed the epening of business in wheat, the market -underwent an extreme fall of 4 3-4 cents, but then began to rally, helped by profit-taking on the /art of bear speculators. Considerabfe notice also was taken of the fact that the Liver- pool market had failed to follow the de- cline of volues here. However, the ma- jority of traders went on the assump- tion that the report of the collapse of the May operations on the bull side was an accomplished fact. This view'was furth- ered by continuance of liquidating sales which were only offset in part by the action of shorts in profit taking. The new liquidation was ascribed chiefly to the action of shorts in profit-taking. The new liquidation was ascribed chiefly to eastern_interests, hepo,afiset A disposition to be conservative on the selling side developed , during / the late trading in wheat, some leaders taking the ground that sentiment had become too unanimously bearish, and that technical conditions could easily arise to give the market a sudden upturn. On the other hand, the outlook was that the bulk of the domestic_available supply would be located in Chicago by the end of the ‘month.
