For three days, with all the nows on the dear side and the trade P aying fora down tuen, thero was an aver- ago decline of lo perday, There was a short period of weakness In the market this morn- ing and during that time with Caduhy, Pacd- ridie, Smith, Logan, Lumson, New York, northwest and local sealpers all sell- inz the price was depressed a frac tion under the low point yester- day. Before milday the bull = news, ohiefly cash wheat sales, began tobe folt and there was a strong re: lon. The market was active and dull by turns, but the bost interest was shown on the advance. The action up to 1o'cloek was as follows: May opened at07%c, s0ld at 075 to 0740 to0i%e to O7TKe to 07%e. July started at63%c sold at 2i§c to e to 02%e to Wie to Wye. When the market opened 1t was found that the cold wave over the wheat states was not at all a destructive one. Cables wero simply steady, with Liver- pool futures firm. Wheat on ocean pussago Increased 4,00 bushels. The ripts here were 00 cars or 2) cars over the estimate. Calitoraia st dispatches announcing rains and othors saying the entire stato was Aryand clear. On this showing the market sold off s explained, but Minncapolis receipts were moderate at 17l cars, Duluth light at 2 cars, St. Louis moderate at 26,00 bushels and Kansas City lizght at 20 cars. The Atlantio ports cleared 27,000 bushels of wheat and 16,000 pounds of flour. Then came cash wheat sales. Detroit sola 100 cars to New York and reported snill stocks and only 10 cars recelpts, In- Alanapolis reported 20,000 bushels of No. 3 red sold to millers an another verson of this denl was that it was Ohleago. No. 3 red sold to Indianapolis to be put In store there at 9. Tho sale of 60,00 bushels of cash wheat here togo to New York, all rail, was the chiet item of bull news. The Ohio millers bought 30 ocars from Minneapolls. G. R, Clark wired from New York that a cargo was belng worked for Lis- bon. Scalpers got short early, seliing against puts, and the bull news frightened them. On this little seare the price of May went from 06Ye to HSe. Giford bouzht whoat early, Behwartz-Dupee and 8. V. Whito & Co, ter nd on the bulge Mitehell, Hutehinson, Georgo Smith and others took a hand in helping on the advance Cars for to- morrow 5.
