Chicago Change.

Chicago H., May 1..Delvery day on May wheat was signalized by slump in prices, which came dangerously near the propor- tion of disastrous break. The market was encompassed by weakness all through the session, but it was not in the last half hour that the decline became important. The de- ously estimated between 2,OOO6 600 and 30OO, 900 bushels, were mainly responsible for the en- ervation. Most of this wheat found its way back into the hands of the elevator people. July wheat opened at 64c sold between CHS and 625sd62s4c, closing at 62Ac Ac under yesterday. Cash wheat was steady early. but was detrimentally influenced by the weakness of futures later.
 Corn-DeliverieS of corn were moderate, much of it coming for sale. Trading was not extraordinarily active, however, and no great weakness was. witnessed until the price of wheat took its final plunge, when the feeling in this market responded and a decline resulted. There was a lack of con- fidence displayed, and the inclination was to July corn opened at S0Ac, declined to 29Ac, closing at 29&4@297sc, 1z4Bc under yesterday. Trading in cash corn was at steady prices, but a nominal loss at the close was quota bier
 oats alteredscarcely at all early. but the tone was soft most of the time. When the ether grains set in to decline there was prompt response in this market July oats closed 1245sc under yesterday. Cash oats were steady early, but nomnally weak at 1Ge close.
 he weakness which prevailed in products early and wheat extended further depres- sion at the close. It was noticeable fea- ture that lard, instead of declining with pork and ribs, held firm and actually re- corded gain at the close, instead of show ing a loss, as the other commodities did. Packers and professional traders express the opinion. that with the continued heavy receipts of hogs there is little hope for pro- ducts. July pork closed 25c lower, July lard 21s@5c higher and July ribs Dc lower.

Cotton Letter.

New York, May 1.-(SpeciaL)-The squeeze in cotton for delivery in May and the sum- mer months made further progress today, although Liverpool showed scant sympa- thy in the rise June, which displays most strength, crossed cents, and the close was steady at near the highest prices. August opened at 7.S9, advanced to 7.9S and closed at 7.97 bid. MT. Inman sold several thou sand bales at the advance He says that the trouble is now to prevent the advance from becoming too rapid. Meantime Octo- Der is only point higher for the day and November and December no higher at all. The crop accounts are all that could be de- sired, but the crop next fall, no matter how big, will hardly help those who have sold cotton to MT. Inman for delivery during the summer.
