Around G6c the offer- Ings, which had been small under that figure, became more free and the price dropped back to 66%c. At this stage of the trade the news of influence consisted of higher cables, re- ports of backward crops in Germany and France and frost In Austria, together with domestic advices of files in Illinois, dry weather in_the Northwest and chinch bugs in Kansas. The reports of Dugs” came in from different sectlons during the whole session and were a strong influence in determining the course of the market. The decrease in the visible of 2,206,000 bushels was also a factor in advancing the price of wheat, and when July agaln touched #6c holders stiil clung to their linea and that market continued on its up- | ward course, touching 6i%c.
