CHICAGO, May 15.-Wheat was nervous all
day. but ranged within narrow limits The
opening price was the lowest point reached and
fluctuations thereafter were from the starting
point to nc higher. July opened at 81 on
and sold up to 81 OPS, ranged between 5 O2M
and 81 021s during the most OF the forenoon,
broke to 81 0l3z, recovered to 81 025E, closing at
15@L4c lower. The volume Of business traus-
acLed was not as large as yesterday or the pre-
ce1ing days Of the week. The corn crowd was
disposed to hammer the market from the outset

values moved up in sympathy with wheat. The
announcement Of 900 cars as to-morrow's re-
ceipts caused break from top prices but sym
patty with wheat aud provision again helped
values up July opened at 5SA15sI5c, sold 10
to 591x, off to 5S14 d5S3sc and closed at 5s7sc
Oats were active and unsettled, with higher
range of values. especially Tor new crop futures,
August aud September, which we're bought on
tue drought stories from the Northwest and re-
ports of bugs in the Southwest. The feature Of
the provision market was limited offerings and
a good demand for the product by leading local
houses. The close shows an advance OF 121fc
in values Of July pork, nc in lard and 10c in
