| There were many sensational transformations
| In the appearance OF the cheat deal, In the end
| slightly In favor Of the bear party. There was
hard ana determined struggle against tho ten
| dency given by the tone VI the greater number
Of tho days dispatches which was Ia favor OF tho
bulls, but the foundation Of all the bullish items
was the foreign demand aud that was very much
| weakened by lower closing cables. Corn was nrin
after momentary weak spell at the opening,
| and closed az about W. Improvement on yester~
days closing figures. Provisions were duli,
heavy, and tending downward, closing with
| better tone. and pork and ribs at slight I'M
provement upon yesterdays tnal prices. Tho
| first transactions In wheat were at about Nc be-
/ low the closing prices " the day before; May
started at sl.03$iasI. O39s and July at si024s
Sl.022R In about five minutes from the start May
| was 81 .04L and July sL03. Hutchinson, whohad
| been free seller OF July wheat fortwo day.,
| was the most eager buyer to-day, while Blooms
and Partridves brokers also competed with each
other for the limited offerings. Many Of the lees.
| er bears followed the example OF those named,
but it Is known that there II still compact phar
| lanx OF heavy operators who are nghung ~
| lower figures. The latter were rewarded FOR
| their stubborn resistance % the early boom,
| which carried May wheat % sl.Oo and July ~
| sl039s. From around s1.04Ss the advance To
| the high point named was very rapid and an
| equally quick decline followed the receipt oS
| lower quotations by the afternoon cables. Tbs
rush 10 sell was 30 unanimous that n eompiets
| reversal OF the earlier conditions immediately
| took place. Few buyers could DO found until 10
was being offered at si0J3., when some shorts
took hold and bought until the price reacted 70
| sI.035a for May, where they dropped 10 and did
| not come TO its aid again until another wave ot
\ depression had carried IL to sl:O3h. An.

Ths corn market vas weak early On TIE IN.
| proved weather. The demand for current re-
ceiptf vas the supporting feature OF tho legiti-
mate situation and the small quantity OF oontracs
| corn IL the permanently strong speculative side
| o. tho deal Tho opening price Of May was
00]kc., few sales were made At bd1 and then
| n steady advance 70 around 611sc. commenced.
A reaction took prices 10 665z :, and final up
