CHICAGO, April 2S.-The highest price of
the year was touched to-day on the Board
of Trade for September pork, $50. 10 bar
rel The prlce darted back and forth like
a hooked trout on an anglers line. After
an advance of Acc from the opening price,
it closed 12Hc lower than on the day be-
fore. 1t was general theory that the
leaders of the clique were striving to real
ize profits on the advance, the latter buy
ing being necessary in order TO check the
decline which had started and at the same
time keep the market in control for scalp
ing purposes The wheat market started
firm, and for an hour or so II remained so,
with buyipg orders from the outside the
more numerous. The firm cables and the
cold weather in the Northwest were bull
factors. But private cables reported that
it was raining in Southern France and IN
Germany, and this quickly developed
weakness. There was also the assurance
which excited the market yesterday, was
fake, and this helped to undermine conf
dence. Later on reports of large purchases
for export helped the market. Private adj
vices from Kansas said the prospects were
worse than ever. Corn was firm at the
opening; free selling then turned the mar
ket down; later it trmed on good buying
and closed with Slight advance. Oats,
