Wheat prices re ceded today, owing .argely to the failure of foreign markets to follow yesterday's advance here. The close was weak to lc net lower, with May $1.18 to $1.18 and July $1.04 to $1.04. Corn lost to c. and oats to c. Provisions gained Irom 2 to 55 cents. Belief that something of a set-back in wheat could well be looked for was appar er.tly prevalent, based to a considerable extent on the fact that there had been a sharp advance of late. The absence of any new upturn at Liverpool tended, therefore, to emphasize weakness of values here arid- this tendency was given further Impetus by a decided drop in quotations at Buenos Aires and by predictions of rain or snow for the domestic grain helt. Corn and oata were depressed by heavy receipts of corn. Provisions Tvent up in value with hogs. The Chicago grain letter, received yes terday by the Overbeck A Cooke company of Portland, follows: Wheat The action of the market today gave the impression that for the time being it is In debatable ground and this theory caused considerable liquidation of long contraots. The news of the day was less favorable to higher prices. The weather map disclosed better conditions in the southwest with moisture in a good many sections and more predicted for to night and tomorrow. Bid from the United Kingdom have been advanced the past few days, but not in line with the upturn in our prices. Cash markets were easier with premuims on red wheat In Chicago reduced one cent. The urgency of the demands for wheat abroad is emphasized in the fact that Argentine prices, with their crop just coming on . market, are higher than American, while at the same time it Is acknowledged that the United States at this time Is virtually over-exported. Corn This market wae slugglish most of the day, suffering from lack of buying power "to offset the selling by long and cash houses against country purchases. Receipts again large and the demand in different at a slight decline in the trad ing basis. The disparity between livestock and corn prices has not as yet served as a stimulant to the. latter, but will prob ably be influential a little later on and we doubt that declines from this level will be important. Oats Support less in evidence and prices declined under the .pressure of scattered selling by longs. Cash demand for past few days has been a little disappointing and the spot trading basis today was lower on small receipts. Rye Futures lower in sympathy with wheat. Cash rye was nominally steady at two cents under May for No. 2 on track. Leading future ranged a follow: WHEAT. Open. High Low. Close. 1.19 $ 1.19 $ 1.18 $ 118 May July May. . . July. . . May.
