CHICAGO, May Gas this was the last
business day of the month and as traders
were not inclined to extend their lines OF
open accounts to be carried over till Tues
dav, the days business was largely in the
nature of scalping The news sent in
early was calculated to advance prices, but
its effect was soon lost. 1t was SAID the
German Government had about concluded
to reduce import duties on wheat by 9
cents per bushel, and there were reports
from the Northwest of dry weather. Later
advices, however, reported liberal rains in
North Dakota last night. Near the close
the arithmeticans figured it out that there
would be large decrease in the visible
supply, and this sent the price up to
81 0O1l. Oats and corn were dull and
featureless, with fluctuations con-
fined to range of y cent. Pro
visions were dull but firm. Flour,
steady and unchanged. Wheat, cash No.
