Chicago. May 2S.-Wheat acted in a ner-
vous and irregular fashion to-day. Scalp
ers found opportunities on both sides,
some very weak spots appearing but I'm
the main a fairly firm to strong feeling
prevailed. Prices were in no instance as
low as the close of yesterday, the inside
quotation, however coming very near TO
II. c. \. King & Co. of Toledo published
a report on the condition of winter wheat,
which, summed up, indicated about half
crop for the six principal states. Crop
damage stories and hot winds in Nebras-
ka and Kansas, with the report men,
toned, were instrumental In causing an
opening i4UlA above the close. During
the morning the demand showed symp-
toms OF slackening and, with very little
effort, a decline took place The ship
ments TO Importing countries for the week
aggregated 9,SS3.cO0 bushels. against the
estimated requirements of 100000 BUSH
els. Bradstreets reported the worlds Vis-
IDLE stocks as 2,S6S,000 bushels less than
last week The reduction was not large
enough to satisfy the crowd, and following
the announcement decline set in. Dur
ing the last half hour a recovery occurred.
the close being fraction of the outside.
July wheat opened from 793iGSD sold be-
tween dc ana Sic, closing at SO5s-2lsC
higher than yesterday. Cash wheat sold
generally at Yesterdays price but closed
nrm ana higher, with the futures.
COrn-There We're 100 cars less in the re-
ceipts OF corn to-day than had been eX-
pected l,025 ears coming In. The esti-
mate for tomorrow was not so large, eth
er, only $40 cars being looked for. 1t is
the opinion of many that after the end OF
May, there will be a sharp falling off in
the movement all along the line. The
market to-day was firm. confidence I'm the
accuracy of the predictions taking hold
OF the trade, and wheat, throwing support
into corn. Bradstreets reported an in
crease in the worlds available stock of
1882 bushels July corn opened from sc
to 533sc, sold between go and &lsc-clos-
ing at 533sc~-li4 ca -highen rti1Hn yesterday
Cash corn. was &c higher than yesterday.
oats were firm most of, the day. There
was brief period when the strength was
not pronounced, but The hnaI trading was
at materially higher prices than vester-
day The strength of the other grain
markets and reports or damage to the
growing crop We're the 'DuillSn factors.
Bradstreet's reported an increase In stocks
of 1,152OO0 bushels. July oats closed li2c
higher than yesterday Cash oats were
IA 1ac per bushel higher
Frovisions--A healthy tone marked the
trading in provisions. Hogs were in light
supply and hard. This was really the mo-
tive for the improvement in provisions,
although the stiff wheat market contribu-
ted something of encouragement. Early,
there was an active business, but from the
call only shortly before the close. very
little was done The last fifteen minutes
witnessed some revival of trading, with
the final feeling firm. The close was 17isc
higher than yesterday for July pork and
7lac higher each for July lard and July
ribs. Domestic markets were quiet and
steady.
