CHICAGO, June 26.-The longs did the smil-
ing again to-day, and the shorts had to reach
pretty high to cover their sales. The wheat
market was fairly active and only few hold
ers sold. The clique are holding on like grim
death to dead niger, and think the end OF
the squeeze is not yet, as the robbers and trade
destroyers have full control and can put prices
where they want to. The curb for July regu-
lar is $l.l6H. .....--..-.
Iowa cyclones, with their usual accompani-
ment of flying roofs, trees, ETC., are not, as a
rule, beneficial to growing corn, and therefore
the large headed shorts attempted to cover,
but as holders who were willing to sell were
few and far between, the bears had to pay just
what was asked, so the market closed strong
at the advance and hasn't stopped going up
yet. July curb is 74Xc.
Provisions also followed the lead OF grain
and the Lord knows where they will stop.
Pills great man. Look out for him.

CHICAGO, June 26.-Some rather unfavor-
able crop news, bull article published
Sunday and believed to be inspired by a
prominent operator, and falling off in re-
ceipts caused by the washouts which de-
stroyed trains, conspired with firmer foreign
and domestic markets to advance prices in
every article traded in speculation
on change. Wheat was not particularly
lively, but prices advanced sharply, ranging /
@2c for spring and 5s9lX c for regular. Sales.
