Chicago, June 1.-THE corn market broke
down to-day. The drop was not so sharp as
was the advance Friday. There was however,
reduction Of about lc per bushel, The
French duty question was more clearly I'M
derstood. Gables were numerous saying the
action was only on hay and straw with no
prospects OF other removals. 1t was also eS-
tablished by past records that France only
takes 1900 900 to 25 600 900 outside corn on an
average, and that the question Of the free ad-
mission of coarse grains was not so very i'm
portant to American grain merchants after all.
The sentiment at the start was easier.
The first trades were anywhere
from &c to &c under final figures, from
yesterday, and after ruling steady for awhile
concluded to grow weaker, selling off &C.
Lator the price rallied trifle, ruled fairly
steady, but at the close had lost 2f6Bc.
There was only light trade in wheat to-day
and an easier feeling existed. The opening
was easier, and first sales were aboat the
same as yesterday. closing at &c lower, re-
eeded 4@&c ana advanced A416c, then re-
coded %c, the market touching
closing about &c lower for July and nc lower
for September than yesterday. Oats were
quiet and lower in value, the close being made
at from 14@Ac under yesterdays figures.
The provision market was strengthened by
receipts of 900 hogs lesE than estimated yes
terday. The ffrmness of prices has ADDED
scarcely anything to the volume of the days
business, The closing prices show advances
from l0@l5c in pork, &c in September lard and
715c in ribs.
