CHICAGO, May 23.-To.dsy on Change
was one of evtreme jullness. There were
very few features of interest and the mar
kets ali Jagged. To Judge from the COM
ments of leading traders the period was
close approaching for radical change IN
one direction or the other, as the critical
time for the growing crops is approaching
and it is felt that a very close estimate as 70
the yield viii be possible BY the close OF tne
present month or early in June. There has
been yery little outside trading during the
past two weeks and speculation has been
confined very closely to local operations.
