QRAIN MARKETS. Quotations Furnished by Coe Commis sion Company R. L. Boulter, Local Manager, 120 Court Street. Minneapolis, June 20. Wheat Notwithstanding the fact that Liver pool came a quarter lower lor wheat, our market opened unchanged from last night's close. The situation In tins Northwest Is hourly growing more and more critical and if wo do not get good general rains within a very few dayH the crop will be seriously dam aged. The future course of the mar ket depends almost entirely on the weather conditions. Should wo get good general rains, the market would probably sell off a little. Should it do this, we believe wheat should bo bought as the situation Is a very strong one at all points, Chicago, June 20. Opening. Close.
