feeling was nervous and unsettled, and for May
prices scored a sharp advance, while more de-
ferred futures followed ouly to q slight extent
May opened 10ll14c higher, and advanced with
some fluctuations 21fc, declined 15sc, ruled firm
and closed about &c higher than yesterday,
June advanced &c, and closed &c higher July
advanced 1c, declined &c, recovered some, and
CLOSED about &c higher than yesterday. Corn
ruled comparatively quiet most of the session.
The market opened q shade higher than the
closing prices of yesterday, iuctuated within
1k0Ac range, and eli sed about the same as
yesterday. Oats stronger offerings at the
start were small. and prices easily advanced &c.
A weaker feeling later developed, and all OF the
advance was lost. Rather an active business
was transacted in pork early In the day, and
prices ruled somewhat irregular. Prices were
1216GDl5c higher than the closing figures of yes
terday. Later the market ruled easier, and
