chicago, April 26.-Excepting a few mo.
InentS at the start wheat was either steady
I MrIl or strong to-day. The tone graded
very much IN the order mentioned the SEN
nment at the close being very bullish
Inc crowd We're inclined to look lIpon the
SIoudy weather around Chicago as favora-
ole 70 snorts, but when il was learned
from the maD and from the weather bu-
re2u that important states in the south
west neither had nor were likely to have
HoiStufe AT once. there was II radical
cnange IN the temper of traders and those
who mad sold made haste to get back their
property. one trader of some prominence
nelped along the Improvement in prices
by Duy1ng in some wheat ne had sold
earlier in the week. July wheat opened
from m. Slc to 6O7sc advanced to 62s4c closing
az oZAq621 Rc-l1sQ1i4c higher than yester-
day. Most of the trading in car lots was
at steady prices, but the nominal close
was strong and higher with the futures
Sorn-All of the scalpers felt disposed to
sen corn at the opening to-day, but the

cloudy weather was somewhat OF a retard-

higher than yesterday. Cash corn was
steady at yesterdays prices
Oats-An easy opening to oats was &C
cepted as natural under the circumstances,
wheat and corn being lower. There was
some changing into later months, but no
large lines, either short or long" were
disturbed. The total of the days business
was very moderate, the ultimate action of
the market being in line with the other
grains. July closed 14c higher than yes
terday. Cash oats were unchanged.
PrOvisions-A narrow range of all ar
ticles in the provision market was evil
depce of the dull and inactive trade in
them. 1t was some time after the market
opened before any quotations were es-
tabliShed. When business started 1t was
with a steady to firm tone, derived from
the hog trade. The advance in wheat later
served to further confirm the general feel
ing of strength July pork closed sc higher
than yesterday; July lard unchanged, and
July ribs a shade higher here to-day
Leading futures ranged as follows:
