! CHICAGO, May 3.-Wheat ruled firm TO-
| day on a small business and closed with an
advance of &c. The movement Of the
stocks is al last apparently coming the way
of the bulls. The visible supply gives evil
dence of a speedy reduction by export.
| Although every foreign market in the
| world informs the trade of this country
that they have already more than enough
/ from other sources, they continue TO re-
ceive about one-half of all they need from
the United States and Canada These
heavy shipments are now being felt in re-
dnctions in the stocks here and without an
overwhelming visible supply, it was asked
| to-day: what are the bears to doi" Corn
was firm and gained &C. May oats were
I likewise &c higher. Provisions are slight
/ ly lower. Flour, steady and unchanged.
