side would not come in The Cincinnati
Price Current in its summary laid par
ticular stress on the need of rain by grow
ms wheat and on this the markets showed
quite little strength at the start. Then
came kilograms from Kansas with news
of rains, on which information the offer
ings enlarged and prices declined Denials
that there had been moisture TO speak of
in the southwest gave buyers encourage
ment and a rally succeeded. The report
of large sales of wheat at San Francisco
for the account of the Fair estate again
forced the market lower, but higher con-
tincntal cables gave renewed hrmness.
Steadiness existed at the close with prices
not much altered from the final quotations
yesterday. There was some gossip OF cdsh
place but the details were very indefinite.
July wheat opened from 611s TO 6i9sc, sold
between 6l% and sic, closing at 6lA-a
shade higher than Yesterday Cash wheat
in the car lc. branch, was steady.
Corn was favored by the action of wheat
and by the dry weather at the opening,
prices presenting an Improvement over

cumstances by following wheat. July corn
opened at 4Sc, sold between 4SlAc, and 4SAc,
closing at the latter, a shade under yes
terday. Cash corn was firm and re per
bushel higher.
Oats-An opinion prevailed in oats that
whilst no great alarm as to the condition
of the growing crop, need be felt, still the
condition was open to Improvement. The
Cincinnati Price Current stated that the
growth was retarded by lack of moisture
This fact was the reason of strength in
that grain to-day. There was also a feeling
of sympathy with wheat and corn. Cash
oats were 14Gi2c higher.
Provisions-TempCrary frmness in pro-
visions at the opening was induced by
higher hog market. Trade began to drag
during the first half hour, the market
eventually becoming heavy and prices.

moderate offerings. A prominent commits
sion man bid values up later, but without
obtaining much property, the recovery re-

at the close was steady, with July pork
unchanged from yesterday; July lard
shade higher, and July ribs shade lower.
