CHICAGO. MAY S.-A large business was
transacted in wheat and sharp reaction
in prices occurred. The early market was
weak and prices lower, being continual
tion of the weakness of yesterday, but ac-
tive buying turned the course OF the mar
llet upwards. Rains were reported IN the
{ northwest. which stimulated selling.
Later numerous brokers c0ul-
menccd to buy, outside orders
= increased and prices steadily advanced 81.
cents above inside figures reached early IN
The dav. Corn was somewhat dull; the
feeling developed was stronger and transac-
: tions were at higher prices The market
in oats was steady and at times very eX-
cited There was little more business
in provisions today chiefly on local account.
Prices averaged higher and the market
closed steady at inside figures. Flour,
