on the board of trade today. May open
ed sc higher. at 541Sc, sold at 5456c, re-
acted to the opening price and advanced
to 545B 15434c. The conditions were all
bullish. Liverpool was firm, the state
crop reports showed a decided falling off
in condition. the government report due
on the 10th is expected to be decidedly
bullish and there is scarcity of elevator
room in this city, all of it excepting for
two million bushels being already occu-
pied, mostly by wheat. Consequently,
there is some apprehension that there
will be q scarcity in store for delivery
when that time comes.

tuations confined to range of SIC to
