CHICAGO, April 2G.-Strength In wheat con-
tlnued to-day, though there was little ANNA
ton IN the market. Other cereals were rather
easy early, but gathered strength toward the
markets TO a considerable extent. The influence
most potent in the wheat market was unfavor-
able weather reports from the west and north
west; May started in at size, sold at s15sc,
about noon. July opened at S116c,
advanced to Sl5sc and back to size, with Sl$Sc
the ruling price at noon. There was little tor
sale except by Partridge. though he was usually
buyer on breaks, and claims that he is doing a
scalping business and is not short any very con
siderable line With little wheat on sale and
| good covering by short interest flrmness became
decided, though without a very marked ad-
| vance. May closed at S1A q $3.50 and
July at s194c. Corn was unsettled and
weak, early making sharp decline
covered. May started at 4l3sc or sac below the
closing price of yes erday but soon there was
a sharp break to 41c. Active buying on the de-
cline caused sharp upturn, May selling rack
| to 4l3Sc and closed at 4ls4c. Oats were very
| steady all day and closed at about yesterdays
| last figures. Hog products were in better de-
| mand and higher. receipts of live
| hogs at the yards were about 1900 below the
| estimate and prices were firm. Pork made a
| sharp advance of about l5c in the forenoon
over yesterdays last prices, then receded
| slightly, but recovered the loss and closed at
outside figures ofkhe day. Lard and ribs were
| steady aud firm.
