was the principal topic of discussion, good

| Corn opened at 465sc, sold between 4Gl2c
and 469sd46Ac, closing at the latter-a
/ shade under yesterday. Cash corn was

Oats-The wet weather tended to cause a
/ easier feeling in oats, but the amount of
! business showed no growth and a very in
| active market was witnessed. The i'm
/ proved tone that wheat took on near the
! end of the session was relief to oats
| and produced better feeling. May closed

| quotably 14G12c lower than yesterday.
Provisions-Dealings in provisions were
! systematically active and the tone de-
! cidedly irregular. Buyers were in the
1 majority during the morning, but toward
/ the close there was more offered than
| the demand was able to consistently alb
/ sorb and consequently values suffered to
/ moderate extent. The hog market was
! partly higher and partly lower, so that
/ the influence naturally derived from that
! source was not a settled one. At the
/ close May pork was l212c lower than yes
! terday. May lard 7l9c lower and May
! ribs a shade lower.
