CHICAGO, Ill, April l9.--Firmer
cablegrams made a higher opening
ma ket for wheat to day, which was
helped momeniarily by some good
buying orders from the country, May
opening at sole, and sold up to S0sc
in the frs. minute, but a large srmy
Of sea pers, backed by few longs,
took the occasion to unload at the ad-
vance, and the marke. res, onded by
dropping down several notches. May
wheat sod down to 79l ; by IL o'clock.
Here the receipt OF another batch of
country orders served TO help the
market back toward higher price,,
and the inevitable scalper again came
to the front and bought for turn.
| The bears, who were such free sellt rs
early, al 10 took hold of the break, and
brought the market back from 792c to
80Ic. He.'e it remained for a while,
but fiually broke, on the news Of a
strike among the Lake Shore switch
men, aud sagged back to 1880. Corn
opened at sac for May, but under the
influence OF strong cables went up to
3SI', but receded sgain under the
heavy selling which followed. In oats
there WAS firm market, caused at the
start from the strength Of the other
grains, but it filled to lose much
| of ito strength when the others
weakened. Flour quiet aud steady.
