CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET.
CHICAGO, June 6-Wheat made such
an advance to-day that even the bulls
lost their breath Yesterday there was a
strong feeling in the market. and the
crowd went home bullishly inclined, made
more so by the predictions Of the Weather
Bureau that there would be frost before
morning in several states. These indica-
tons were not fully realized, and some
Of the bold feeling was lost. To the sur
prise OF both sides, prices opened right
on Meals and from that time until
the bell tapped at ll5 p. NJ. the talent
were treated TO genuine bun market.
The Kansas State report was the sensa-
ton Of the day. II reported a decline Of
81 10 20 per cent. IN the condition of the
crop. Its effect was instantaneous, as
shown by the action OF prices The short
sellers were quick 20 discover their dis
advantage and prompt 10 act. Even the
leader OF that element. Partridge, was "a
heavy buyer, although he did not become
prominent until within the last hour.
There was some dropping back Just at
the end Of the session ON selling Out OF
long wheat by those who were anxious
to ciinch their profits. Gables were mostly
higher. Indicating a reyulson of feeling
on the other side. Antwerp was the ex-
ceptiOn, prices In that market showing
no change. Cash wheat was strong, snow
ing an advance equivalent TO that OF the
futures. July wheat opened at 56isc., sold
between $50. and 59Ac., and closed with
gain of 3isa3Ac. over yesterday, at
J94c.
Corn was active and higher. II did
not keep up with wheat and oats, but
the feeling was strong, and a gain or
&c over yesterday was recorded. Tne
Kansas State report, which was decidedly
bulish on wheat, was quite the contrary
on corn. which fact rather dampened the
arhor Of buyers. July corn sold between
9g. and 4Oisc closing at 40c.. with the
gam above mentioned. Cash corn was IN
fair demand and steady.
Oats continued In the direction pursued
yesterday The State reports, as pub
hshed in the morning papers were very
unfavorable TO the crop The position OF
the Board Of Trade relative 10 the ele-
yator interest has excited the fears OF
the shorts. July closed 2ss424.c. higher
than yesterday, and June lSc. higher:
cash oats were in active demand. and
from ldiizc. higher.
Provisions were bare of feature. The
opening was without the usual guide as
hogs We're unsettled. some grades being
higher and others lower. The extraordl-
nary strength OF grain served as sus-
tainer. however. prices holding their own
quite generally. July pork closed Sc.
higher than yesterday July lard 2i9a5c.
higher, and July ribs, 2i2c. higher.
