The receipts today were exceptionally |rel eavy, there being a total of 83 cars re- ived. This is the largest single day n received on the local exchange for everal months and the general tone a{ e market was bearish. There was an active demand for every- ing on the list, but the demand was hardly strong enough to take care of suc eavy reccipts. Wheat held up well, better grades selling at unchanged prices nd the poorer grades declining about a cent, The cash demand for corn was good, but the market was very weak and ranged from 1 to & cents lower. Oats followed wheat and corn, dropping from % to 1 cent, although the cash de- mand for this cereal was pretty active. Rye was irregular, selling from o higher to l¢ lower, and barley remained ically unchanged Liverpool Clgse: Wheat, unchanged; corn, %d_higher. Primary wheat recelpts, were 2,327,000 bu. and shipments of $12,00 bu., against receipts of 1,610,000 bu, and shipments of 3 625,000 bu. last year. | box; 468, Primary corn receipts were 1,017,000 bu, | . and shipments of 22,000 bu., against re- | ¢ ceipts of 1,780,000 bu. and shipments of '"'“"“ 672,000 bu. last year. - ad ibs. each not tull feathered and fat, but not wanted.
