CHICAGO, April 1.-THE wheat market
today ruled weak and strong by turns
within range of 1S4c on crop damage
news, May finally closing with a gain of
lSc. Corn is unchanged and oats 1sc high
er Pork lost 15c, lard 7l5c and ribs &C.
The impulse among wheat spectators
at the start was to sell on the government
crop report, which was regarded as bear
ish. May opened 1s@4c lower, at from
11sc down to 707sc, and as there was no
great amount of wheat wanted to begin
with the price declined steadily to ,02sc
The decline was accentuated by report
from Kansas City to the effect that the
Kansas crop had without doubt improved
wonderfully in the last few days. The
more the government report was consid-
cred and analyZed the more the trade was
inclined to doubt if it could rightfully be
given a bearish Interpretation, and many
of the early sellers wanted back former
holdings. Statstician Snow, in his crop
report, based on more recent advices than
the government received, reported several
declines within a week reducing Indiana
10 points; Illinois, Is; Missouri Is and
Kansas 8. The latter report had much in
fuence with traders and turned the gem
eral pit feeling of the selling to the buy
ing side. May rose from around 701Ac to
721sc on the buying it melted, substan-
tiated as 1t was by numerous private re-
ports of deteriorating conditions.
Chicago received 11S cars, of which 8
graded contract. Minneapolis and Du-
luth got 1856 car loads, compared with Isl
a year ago. Atlantic port clearances of
wheat and -four were $4,000 bu. Brad
streets reported worlds visible decreased
since last week 39l 900 bu, compared with
1,470,000 bu increase the like week last
year. In the end the market began to
give heed to the little peeping note of
improving prospects in Kansas, and to
turn deaf ear to the perfect howl of
distress from other quarters Liquida-
ton set in on a heavy scale, and the mar
ket lost the advance about as fast as 1t
gained it, May closing swith sellers at
714@71%c.
The corn market kept In range with
wheat Receipts were light and prom
ised to remain so for some time to come
but the weather was seasonable and
promising for the pushing of spring work
on the farms There was a fair cash de-
mand Receipts 259 cars. May opened a
shade lower. at s4ls93fAc; rose to a4alc,
then dropped back to 3414c, the closing.
Oats were fairly active, with trade of a
general character. More favorable
weather caused easiness in July delivery,
while the good demand from shippers held
May delivery quite strong Receipts, 1853
cars. May began a shade higher, at 28k
Q2614c; advanced to 2612c, then reacted to
26c, and closed at 26Ac
Liquidation weakened provisions Cash
trade showed some little Improvement,
but the stocks of lard are accommodating
fast, and bulls in this product were dis
couraged because the May and June run
of hogs is now near and Ma,--iiit itllI Gitis, tIon
in order. Nav = -. opened 21ac lower, at
$9,1711. touched $500, and sold off to s9O21b
and closed at $9.05. The range in lard and
ribs was small.
