CH1cAGo GRAIN MARKET.

CHICAGO, May 4.-Liverpool cables started the wheat market here the upgrade at to- days opening. The English market was up 45kd on near by futures, while the Paris market was reported S1 centimes lower. The latter re- port proved to be 20 centimes out of the way however and caused plenty of selling hee But the fact remained that France had only enough wheat in sight to last two weeks The country's consumption is 5,OOO,0oO bushels per week and their own crop will Lot be available until August. Rumors were current that Ger many and Austria would also abolish their import duty. Letter reported foreign bid at D cents advance over yesterday $ offers July started 1%c higher at 96q96l4c. The market eased off immediately to 954c. Scalpers were in a bearish mood and put out short lines With out hesitation. Closing cables showed Liver for July and spot wheat up from 2d tpr No. northern to 2d for Californian. Rumors or large cash sales to France kept the pit In a very nervous state. but up to l2:30 p. m. she market was in comparatively normal condl- S1 A. Shorts made occasional eforts to cover and each time they found offerings growing scsr rcer. Half an hour before the close Letter calmly announced that he had Just sold oOO,- coco bushels of cash wheat for export presum- ably to France. at an advance of cents over yesterdays figures. He accompanied the news with heavy buying orders through his brokers. They bid May up from PA to 13l. Letters ef- forts to secure more May wheat which IS equivalent to the cash article threw the bears into panic. July jumped by eighths and guar net gain of 1 cents. May closed at l30 net gain of 9c Letters tactics to-day apparently show him to be in complete mastery, over May wheat at least, and if. is greatly believed, there Is still large short interest in May, the bears may have fancy losses tomorrow. May corn opened higher, but ruled heavy until near the end. Shorts bought eagerly when wheat got excited, closing the market at the top July gained hc.
 Oats were dull but firm, July closing Ao higher.
 Provisions cveped strong but dull. The dd- vance in grain caused prices to recover and closed with adv ances of 15c in pork, 10e in lard and Sc in ribs. The market was without especial feature.

Isobars solid lines. connect points of equal air pressure; isotherrns, or dotted lines, equal temperature The word high means high barometrfc pressure and is usually accompanied by fair weather; low refers to low pressure and Is usually preceded and accompanied by cloudy weather and rains Lows usually first appear the Washington coast. When the pressure Is high in the interior and low along the coast. and the isobars extend north and south along the cast. rain is probable: but when the low is inclosed with isobars of marked curvature, rain south of Oregon is im- probable With a high in the vicinity of Idaho, and the pressure falling to the Califor- mia coast warmer weather may be expected in summer and colder weather In winter.
