reature was the sharp decline and apparent demorali ton which prevailed in Liverpool That market seemed wholly indifferent to our advance yesterday and July there was equal to 4 cents lower n the close last night The weather rt was fre and favorable throughout the winter wheat belt in marked contrast with the conditions condi-tions which prevailed yesterday This improvement im-provement In itself was a weak factor and when the slump in Liverpool was added ad-ded the bearish sentiment became irre sitible Much of the long stuff taken on during tho prevalence of the bull senti ment yesterday was liquidated and there was active selling for the short account and hammerinE of the market by pro fessional bears Prices rallied on reports from various sections of the country un favorabJe and most especially from Kansas Kan-sas reiterating yesterdays advance about tg t3 1rl the sudden deterioration of va g crop prospects Lower closing Liverpool cables caused another sag in values and the market was heavy al a slight improvement improve-ment on the lowest price of the day until Bradstreets report of the change for the week In the worlds visible was received That gave a decrease in all positions of 10556000 bushels and caused a slight rally But the advance merely served the purpose pur-pose of the bears who had come to the conclusion that all the crop damage that had been heard of would still leave more than enough wheat for all requirements and consequently extended the glad hand to the buyers on the Bradstreets statement state-ment and accommodated them with all the wheat they wanted for future de ce livery Prices fell off but recovered some of tho loss before the close July left off li cents down and September declined de-clined Tic t Liquidation it July by prominent longs and the break in wheat started corn weak Later come of the early loss was recovered recov-ered on good buying by shorts July closed iya lower Heavy selling by July longs caused a break of 154 in oats There was a partial recovery on good buying by shorts and scalpers July closed 1 lower Heavy hog receipts and two more cases of yellow fever In Mississippi were the apparent causes for
