Prices were down 2 to 3 cents for the day. 1 July wheat struck a bottom of t3 cents a bushel in Chicago, 76 cents In Kansas City, 87 Vi in Winnipeg, and was only a couple cents above a dollar a bushel in Liverpool. The September option was not much higher. Even December, delivery wheat was around 10 cents less than a dollar a bushel on all American exchanges.
