Chicago. April A-The cash business
was worked in the capacity of an invis
rator in wheat to-day. When the market
was weak under selling by Ream, Pard-
ridge, Rosenkrans and ott%~s Armour
man gave out that 100000 bushels had been
sold at this place for export. Then again
near the close, additional sales were re-
ported to help prices from the position as
a rumor that the estate Of ex-senator Fsir
of California had been7 ordered by the
courts to dispose OF the wheat II held.
The market was quite firm at the opening
on the failure of Liverpool to respond 10
the break of yesterday in American mar
kets, but the heavy professionals were
bent on retrieving their late losses and be-
gan uns nimously to sell. In a brief period
of time decline to point below the close
of yesterday took place. after which val
ues rose and fell several times. July
wheat opened from 6lhc to 61iAc, declined
to 6OAc, closing at 61km61Mc-Hm3sc
higher than yesterday. Cash wheat Gear
lots) sold ON an average at about yester-
days figures the nominal close being
about steady
Corn-From the opening till the close the
action of corn was of a disspirited order.
Nothing of a strengthening or depressing
nature was received, and in the absence
thereof wheat again occupied the position
of the leading factor. Scalpers and local
traders did the Hons share of the bust
ness, commission men reporting scarcity
of country and outside orders. July corn
opened at 4734c, sold between 47sf0477sc
and 47Ac closing at the outside, lsc higher
than yesterday Some corn was reported
sold for export. In the sample market
values were steady.
Oats-The inactivity which had settled
on corn, and comparatively speaking on
wheat, acted in like manner on oats.
There was no news and no alteration in
the situation to warrant independence and
prices were governed entirely by the feel
ing in the larger markets. July oats clos
ed &c higher than yesterday. Cash oats
were unchanged.
Provisions-Quiet. reigned In product
weakness being the prevailing tone, III
though at the close prices presented some
steadness at the decline. The hog mar
ket was off 10c and that fact constituted
the important reason for the weakness in
provisions. Packers were trading on both
gressiveness on either The close was
121zc lower than yesterday for July pork
5G171zc lower for July lard, sc lower for
July ribs.
