CHICAGO. April 25.-Thls was field day for
The bears IN all the grain pits, and provisions
even, which were i1cliued TO be dull and stead
hnally caught the infection and went off mod
erately The net result of the days trad ng
was loss OF 2ssc in the prices OF wheat, 2Isc
IN corn and S95c ia oats. The news OF the daV
was unusually bearish. Crop reports were rosy,
I4PtS III Tue northwest were heavy. the In
Riish markets were lower, and exports for the
week were disappointing About the only en-
couragement for the advocates OF higher prices
was the reported advance at Paris and Berlin
and private report OF frost damage in Ken
lucky. July wheat started az 81 0S16. sold to
u lSss, up speadily to 81 09L then started
downward again. There were brief halts and
moderate reactions at 81 0S3k the put" prico
az 81 o., at 81 07I6, at 81 on and at 81 066S
from the latter figure there was rally 10 81 o.
Dat this was lost near the close, which was easy
at practically the lowest prices OF the day. The
pears sold wheat right aud left, took IL in on
bad breaks and again threw It on the market
whenever there was q suspicion of a rally. Their
power increased constantly, and before the SEES
sion ended they were apparently in complete
control. There was free selling also credited to
New York parties, and some wheat held by in
terror traders was closed out. on which stop
loss limits had been placed Corn was as weak
as wheat, Liquidation by longs and selling by
bears was too great for the small buying de-
mand 10 overcoms. July started at 6614c aud
sold at e63Sc. but was off to 6lI4c before the
session ended, when prices were &c higher. The
oats news was all favorable TO the bears who
hammered the market roughout the session.
PROVISIONS were comparatively dull. July pork
started at "a ON, sold to 81 10 and off later to
Sl2 &zSS. The weakness of corn and other grain
counted against the market, but there was no
heavy selling. The close shows a loss as com
pared with yesterday, of Csc in pork, 10c in lard
ard 103lsIkc in snort ribs.
