The only show of strength In Wheat at any time today waa at the opening. Wire houses and an Individual leader with a considerable following In the local trad aold early. It waa near th close when several prominent concerna In the trade become aggressive on the selling side and caused ao much . weakness that long wheat come out from many source. There was a sharp drop In Ouluth re ceipts this morning, but thia failed to count aa an element of support against other bearish Influences. Milling sale of wheat were limited to 40,000 bushels. All the foreign markets ; reported x ireme ouunesa. There was selllnc of corn on a liberal scale during the morning. . The market was steadied for a time by purchases of December against sales of corn to tn east overnight by a couple of ele vator concerns. Later th market had to take 600,000 bushels of corn from some unknown source, through a local broker. Th fact that the short Interest was largely reduced on th upturn th J ast couple day left the trade to be nfluenced by some aggressive selling. Probably the fine weather over the bin corn state and th favorable forecast for a couple days ahead had much to do with th heaviness. Oat futures mad a little closing rally- from low point. Bnippinjr sues or iio.uvu ousneis neipea the feeling on th buying side at. tha close. It 1 probable that the greater part of the selling- for th day wa In fluenced br the break In .corn.

Th uneasiness In . tha' , foreign markets, which haa been, induced by the, f eara of labor troubles and by the strained finan cial 'condition In South America, Egypt and India, contributed to the unsettle meat in domestlo quarters, and a feature of recent trading in the stock market has been liquidation by holder of se curities who purchased during th June and July decline, presumably for per manent Investment but who apparently ara now disposed to reduce line In view of disturbing factors confronting the situation. Support haa been conspicuous by it absence, and prominent market Inter eat seem disposed to resume a neutral attitude pending some definite Indica tion as to whether foreign liquidation of American issues la likely to continue on a broad scale and whether the cur rency and banking legislation now in prospect will be handled along non- S artisan lines and in keeping with a ealre to refrain from upsetting exist ing standards.
