CHIOAaO, April l9.-Firmer cables made a
higher opening for wheat to-day, which was
helped mOmentarlly by me good buying or
ders from the country: May opened at SO13c,
sold up to SO5Sc in the first minute, but large
army of scaipers, backed by few heavy
''lOngs," took occasion to unload at an ad-
vance, and the market responded by dropping
several nOtches: May sold down To 1910 by
IL O'Clock: here the receipt of another batch
of country orders served TO help the market
back towards higher prices, and the scalpers
again came to the front ana bought Tor turn :
the bears, who were free sellers early, also
took on the break and bought the market back
from 7glsc to SO1$c: here 1t remained for a
WHILE but finally broke on The news OF strike
among the Lake Shore switchmen and sagged
back TO 1880. May corn opened at 373sc, but
under the influence of strong cables went up
to 3SlSc, and fell under the heavy selling which
followed. In oats there was firm market,
caused at the start from the strength Of other
grains, but it failed to lose much of its strength
when the others weakened. In provisions
there was little trading, the tendency being
downward in pork and some weaker In lard
and ribs; May pork opened at 50 % and sold
steadily down all day, touching 50 l7l5 before
the O'clock close.
