CHICAGO May 24.-One of the features
of the day was a sharp advance in the pre-
MUM for May wheat. A considerable
short interest has developed in that month,
but the elevators seem 10 own nearly all
the wheat and were not anxious to part
with IT, Besides the showers the best
bull item in wheat was the decrease OF the
amount on ocean passage by 100000 bush
els The decrease was due TO the hurrylng
of wheat into France to escape the increas-
ed duties June l. II was a weather market
in corn. Business was Of lighter order
than for several days past and traders
were not attempting more than scalp on
the changes. Oats, firmer. Provisions,
