CHICAGO, April 1S.-A rather easy feeling was noticeable at the opening of wheat With the exception of California almost the entire country reported crop prospects bright with the weather perfect for farming operations
 Prospective buyers were also held in check for inc time being by the fact that Liverpool aI- though opening at a good advance, had lost about all of it before trading commenced here
 T,,t the incpent weakness gave way to strength almost before the market got under way The big bull factor Of last week the foreign demand for American grain, was again very much in evidence, it being stated that everything offered of wheat, corn, rye and oats was accepted in the Continental markets at good prices. This evidence of determination on the part of the foreigners to get all the grain possible before the actual outbreak of expected hostilities resulted in very general buying movement, in which St. Louis shorts were quite prominent, and which continued for half an hour. Offerings were small and in scattered lots, prices advanced steadily. July opened at S6A QS65sc, or a shade under Satur- days closing price. Before selling became heavy enough to cause turn the market had advanced to STAG, the high price of the day
 Realizing on the advance then became quite heavy, a decline to S6&c resulting. Before n .30 July had dropped to S6hc. The price of Jniy at one time in the afternoon fell as low as S4Xc It recovered to S6asc, where it closed
