Chicago, April 10, Noon.-The following
are the closing Quotations; Wheat, Nav,
lard, May, TO5 bid; ribs. May S6.32lsa
Chicago, April 13-For May wheat CSC
appears to suit the trade very we'll Not
withstanding extraordinary efforts to adj
vance the price, as well as determined
selling to depress IL, during the past
two weeks, that quotation remains the
average To-day there was a very fair
trade for Saturday although the lack
OF foreign news prevented decided action
either way. Holders OF calls were always
IN evidence when a shadow of a profit
was obtatnable on their privileges, and
the offerings on that account held values
In check. May wheat opened at 5434c, ad-
Nanced to 55Mc, closing al 55c, &c higher
than Thursday Cash wheat was steady.
Corn-Persistent pounding Of the July
option in corn parted weakness to ali
the other months well to-
day. A prominent professional
was the aggressor, the weakness
bringing out good amount OF long stun
Partridge was said to have parted with
some Of his holdings too. The strength
and undisputed firmness of wheat was
without avail In sustaining corn which
seemed to follow an Independent course
May corn opened at 45ssc, sold between
45Ac and 454, closing at the latter &c
under Thursday. Cash corn was weak
and lae bushel lower.
Oats-The frmness of wheat was infiu-
entail in determining the tone of oats
early, but the hard spot was a tempta-
tion to holders and they Unloaded literally
towards the close, values naturally re-
ceivng a setback from the pressure
There was nothing taken from store
May oats closed &c lower than Thursday
Cash oats were quotable 1amAc per bush
ell lower.
Provisons-Products made a very poor
record to-day. general expression Of
dissatisfaction with the volume of trade
was heard. Prices were called steady
simply because the offerings and the de-
mand were both unimportant. Before
the close the moderating purchases lifted
prices a trife, but no significance at
tached to the fact May pork gained SC
for the day; May lard 547lsc higher. and
May ribs 2lzd5c.
Leading futures ranged as follows.
