Chicago, March 26.-Operators IN wheat
have been disappointed so frequently in the
expectations OF freeze up that the govern
ment indications of Saturday were quite gen
orally disregarded. Those who put faith in
them. however, were rewarded with a sub
stantlal gain at the opening TO day. without
the worry and anxiety incident to an uncer-
certain and irregular advance The bears
secuted the idea OF damage TO the
crop. but it was evident that
they were i'll at ease. First ira es we're made
anywhere from q C to sc higher than the
closing prices of saturday, and although no
serious harm had been reportedup to today s
close, most of the advance was stubbornly
held. May opened with sales from 5S sc to
59c, ranged between 599s@5s9sc closing 40
lc higher than Saturday at IS A05S SC Cash
wheat was quiet. Prices were about cent
higher in accord with futures Corn
was imbCed with the spirit OF wheat
at the opening but soon lasped into
state of inactivity. The range of
prices was narrow, May selling between 37I&c
the opening, and 37Gl371sc, closing at 37lR0q
3734c a fractional gain over Saturday Cash
corn was steady. Oats were dull with a
steady TO firm tone. he close was about &c
higher than saturday for May. Provisions
were firm ana higher at the opening, later
becoming easy and losing some of the ad-
vance on general selling. A strong
hog market and better demand in wheat were
responsible for the early strength OF product
After the selling pressure was removed a
moderate reaction followed, and the close
showed gain for the day of 5G0712c in May
pork, nc in May lard, and sc in May ribs.
