CHICAGO, April IA slump OF SIC In
Nav wheat to-day caused many to believe
that the shorts have nearly all been driven
in: the rumors of big settlements, which
were so thick at the time OF the great ex-
element, but which were so vigorously de-
MED. were no doubt well founded, tor the
CLIQUE seems to have abandoned the deal
for the moment at least, and sold heavily,
both of May and July. Later, when the
decrease of nearly 100000 bushels IN the
visible supply was known, prices recover
ed some. Notwithstanding appearances
number OF people contend the action OF tne
clique to-day was only a ruse to induce
further short selling and work another
soreeze. The cables were rather unfavor-
able for holders, Liverpool being quoted
slower and London cargoes very weak.
Corn was firm on covering by shorts at an
