WHBAT—The foreign.markets showed little change. Chicago dropped from T6c to T4%e, and large quantities came out on stop orders, with the bears hammering. The Chicago let- ter ot Bolton, De Ruyter & Co. said: “‘Re- ports from the winter wheat belt all of a favorable character. Speculative market oper- ated steady to shade firmer, influenced by strength in corn. There was, however, a good deal of long wheat pressing for sale and mar- ket soon turned heavy. The selling pressure | kept up pretty well during the day and num- erous stop orders were reached all the way down. After hesitating at T6c a fresh selling movement carried the price quickly to 74 from which figure there was a fractional raily, It was simply a day of liquidation. Cash situation on all sides was not such as to encourage the bulls and -the export demand at the seaboard was reported as flat. It still looks to us s though a crop scare is the only thing that can bring about a bull market at this time, and we doubt the wisdom of speculating on & possible calamity, The mar- ket, however, has had a sharp decline and some rally is in order. We think, In the ab- sence of thawing and freezing weather in th wheat belt, sales are in order on the rallies. In this market futures were lower, but cash Wheat remained about as before, CASH WHEAT.
