81 b-Sc, sold UP to. 6bu65 l-sc, of TO
81 b-sc, and reacted to "a sac. The
bulge from "a 5-Sc TO 65 l-sc was due
to the later cables. which came- higher,
and to a few crop damage dispatches,
but the strength was ahort-llVed and
the price soon went back TO the start

hrm during the last hour. May selling
at o. b-SQH 7-sc, closing easy at "a 5-sc
sellers.
Corn was but slightly affected by
wheat receiving fair support, and
smaller receipts also contributed to
the strength displayed.
Oats were quiet and unintercstng.
Provisions were extremely quiet, but
the strength OF the grain mhrkets and
the small run OF hogs created a stcadl-
