Provisions were unchanged to 10c lower. Wheat bulls made many converts to an assumption that from now on the chief factor In establishing values would bo domestic instead of export conditions. It was pointed out that besides the evident unwillingness which growers displayed toward sell ing at current prices, country roads were in bucIi bad shape that a free movement of grain was out of the question. Moreover, the green bug pest was noted today in Missouri and Oklahoma as well as in Texas. An nouncement of large export sales of flour with a prospect of more added somewhat to the strength of the mar ket. Corn and oats reflected the wheat bulge, and were also Influenced by ex port business in corn and by predic tions of continued unseasonable weather. Provisions were inclined to weakness owing to sympathy with downturns wliich at times took place in the hog market.
