CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET.

CHICAGO. April 27.-The shorts in the
wheat market found themselves in tr0u-
BILE this morning, and as the snort SEES
sion wore ION they were plunged m
deeper worry. The export tales from New
York Yesterday had not fully Borne frult
when business was over. but on the curD
they were effectually worked, and an UNI
official gain of sIc. took place. rms I'M
provement was fully sustained at the
opening this morning. and more was
added TO the price during the ilrst houf.
u was n broad market. ana individual
operations were not apprecldDie IN the
excitement and uprOar, although two or
the heavy short sellers were believed IN
have covered very freely. Higher Liver
pool cables al the opening ana sharp al
rances in Continental markets at the close
were features OF strength. More than all
else In causing alarm. however, was the
insuficiency of moisture in the SOUTH
west July wheat opened at from tZ's IN
G2atc. advanced to sac, and closed az
Cpsc.-l5.4l2,c. higher than yesterday.
cash wheat was liac. higher than yester.
corn had fair share OF the specula~
tive action. and was benefited literally
by the boom in wheat Scalpers anu
local traders were heartily In sympathy
With the strength OF the leading grain,
and every eighth advance in that market
was the signal for an Increased buylns
Of corn. July corn opened at from ~.
TO 4sltc., and advanced to iS..c.; where I
corn was Nc. per bushel higher
Oats moved very lesurely In the up-
ward direction. The motive for adj
vancing was obtained from the course
adopted by wheat and corn. Some cover
ing by shorts took place, and there wa,
buying OF long stuff on the confidence
produced by the general strength OF
grain. but no particularly large or nota..
bic trading occurred. July oats closed
isGhc. higher than yesterday. Cash oats
were firm and &c higher.
ProvisiOns-It could be said OF product
that il was steady and that was all.
The business lacked the appearance OF
activity. the short session and the near
approach Of the first of May tending to
deter operators from opening new ac-
counts. The hog market was firm and
higher early, but later the advance made
direction was had on provisions. The
close was Sc higher than yesterday for
July pork a shade higher for July lard.
and unchanged for July ribs.
