CHICAGO June 20-Speculation in wheat
to-day was characterized by very great activity,
though the aggregate trading was fair in volume.
There was firm opening, due to stronger cables
and another advance in the Liverpool market,
but there was considerable pressure in the local
market to sell, later on, caused in part by the
announcement of the arrival of carload Of
1888 wheat from Texas at st. Louis, and that
harvesting was progressing favorably in some of
the Southern sections. The local temper was
rather strong, in the main, however, and the
market closed about the same as yester-
day-l4 1Isc higher than one week
ago. The sentiment among the
traders appears to be very evenly divided The
"bears" DECLARE that the present large stock in
sight will keep the market down, and that
eepting the government bureaus figures for the
new crop, the surplus from last year. will suffice
to make fair average total. The ''bulls" de-
clare that all the statisticians join in repudiating
the government figures, and indicate much
smaller crop than that prophesed by the govern
ment bureau. A third class of traders appar-
emily do not anticipate any special movement in
the market in either direction until some actual
results from the harvest are disclosed, or
a shipping and consumptive movement results in
reduction of the present stocks. Various
predictions were made as to the visible supply
statement. They generally anticipate an increase
in the stocks. Corn ruled quieter and generally
easy, closing at about the latest figures current
yesterday. The receipts were large, but the
shipping movement was free. Beyond this, there
was nothing of interest in the market Oats
ruled dull and easy, with prices trife lower.
Provisions ruled dull and easy. and closed for
mess pork fully 15c under yesterday.
Flour was dull and unchanged.
