CHICAGO, May 25.-The speculation in wheat
today was very limited, and trading on the
regular board dragged very heavily This was
accounted for In part by the absence of any
foreign news, the British exchanges being
closed There was nothing in the home
situation essentially different from what
has been known to the traders for week past
The receipts here were somewhat larger, and
this, In addition TO fine weather for the growing
crops caused somewhat weaker tone until the
afternoon when the feeling was somewhat
stronger, and the market closed for the day
shade higher than Saturday. There was good
speculative business in corn, and the feeling
developed was unsettled and weak, and the fact
of good many stop orders" being the mar
ket helped the decline. Fine weather for the
growing crop, together with an anticipated lib
eral increase in receipts TO morrow, brought out
free offerings. The shipping demand was linn
lted, though the sales of cash corn to 60 in store
were large. The market closed for the day
about &c under Saturday. Oats ruled active,
but unsettled and lower. The market opened &c
lower, rallied trife, but fell back and closed !
