After showing strength for tho greater part of the session tho wheat market today declined near tho end. nnd final prices showed gains of from a to Sic, or lic to 1-JJc under tho highest. Tho early advances wero brought about by disappointing reports from Oklahoma, wiiero hot wenthor caused damage, ns It followed so closely after the recent dry spell, nnd this brought about buying on a general scaie, wnicn was led hy the Southwest. Shorts also covered nnd stiffened tho mar ket to some degree. The late recession was caused by liquidation nnd profit-taking on a fairly liberal scale. Traders gonorally gavo considerable significance to reports that Count von Buelow was to come to this country In a special mission, which led to comment as to the possibilities of early pence moves. Theso reports cxerclsod the greatest in fluence In tho last hour's trading. Corn dropped sharply In sympathy with wheat. In this commodity the shorts cov ered early, but the Ilnal tone was barely steady, with some pressure from scattered sources, ln tho late part of tho scsslonvbgk mfwyp After showing advnncos of c In tho leading options, oats declined tc to lc. In the lato part of tho session. There were moro faovrabio advices from tho crop country. Tho report of tho Price Current Isued to day, was considered bullish nt tlio time It was received In the market.
