CHICAGO MARKETS.

CHICAGO, ILL, June 10.-Preparatory to the
receipt OF the Government today there gen.
eral evening up in the wheat market and as the
long interest greater than the short the
process cost the price considerable the start, but
later when the offerings were about exhausted a
rally occurred. There was however, no stability
in the tone and no inclination to attempt a bull
movement. 1t was surmised that the Government
would be more conservative in its figures on the
crop than have been the state bureaus ana that
theory was without doubt the main weakening in
huence.
Liverpool cables were weak and 3ld lower. Re
ceipts in the Northwest were 354 cars against 373
Ca rs last Wednesday ana 16l ii year ago. Chicago
had IL cars and inspected out l1U,Ss5 bushes.
Toward the close the New York stock market
having become weak, wheat declined further In
sympathy. Closing Paris and Berlin cables were
fair at 34065l bushels. July wheat opened
from 1914 to 5734c, sold between 1855 and SIC
closing at 573sc. 1s@1c lower than yesterday.
Estimated receipts for tomorrow, l9 cars.
CORN-Nothing calculated TO help corn prices
WAS card, but, on the contrary, the information
was almost entirely OF the Kind that is welcome to
bears Receipts were 16l cars over the estimate,
376 cars arriving. Liverpool cables were lower.
The principal reason for weakness, however, was
the heavy tone OF the wheat market Withdrawals
from store were l74,142 bushels. Export clear
ances amounted to 22O 554 bushels Active spec
ulative trading had gone from the July in,o the
September option. September corn opened at
zSTsc, sold between 291s and 2Ss4c, closing at
2S7 7sc, shade under yesterday. Estimated re-
ceipLs for tomorrow, 800 cars
OATS-Were quiet and presented much the
n.
inI no encouragement in the outlook and agree in
the opinion that accident is the only hope they
have. Receipts were 1873 cars and 28,617 bushels
were withdrawn from store. Export clearances
amounted TO 255,452 bushels. July oats closed
unchanged from yesterday. Estimated receipts
FLAX-Was steady. Cash, sO@sO1ac; July,
Sic asked; September, S11a@S2c. Receipts were
IA cars.
PRO OVISIONS-Averaged weak A heavy run
of hogs at the yards worked decentralization in the
market at that place: In the natural order of
things, product opened in an unsettled and weak
condition. There were buying orders in pork,
however, the execution of which helped the price
OF that commodity, but lard and ribs were per
mitted 10 sink. Later the demand showed some
activity, and prices improved slightly, but
eventually earlier conditions again controlled the
market. July pork closed sc higher, July lard
o@712c lower, July ribs sc lower.
BUTTER-The butter market was active, but
lower. Supplies were liberal and the quality very
good. AT the delcine in price steady
