Traders said yesterday's sharp : rally had resulted from heavy short covering and weak ened the technical position of the -market Bearish sentiment was apparent throughout the day. and some of the deferred, deliveries of leading grains sold at new": seasonal lows. There was a lull in the demand for flour but the -principal factor in . the break in wheat was the harvest, already under way in the - southwest and showing yields that from 20 to 25 bushels an acre. 1 The government's June 1 report of croD conditions, to be released Friday, was expected to be much more optimistic than last month's and to indicate a yield of at least 700 million bushels of winter wheat Substantial improvement in the prospects for other small era ins also was anticipated? Wheat closed 2 to 2 lower! than yesterday, July $1.60.cOats were off 1 to 1, July Uft-V. Rye was off 2Va to 2V, July $105 1.06 Vi. Barley was 1 to 1 lower, July $1.19. Continued lack- of demand for the large stocks of rye in storage at terminal cities and some pessi- micm vAffowlintf I Via Trrrr Vmci ness caused weakness in the mar ket for that I grain.
