CHICAGo GRAIN MARKET.

CHICAGO, April 1S-A report by the Illinois
Agricultural Bureau, which claimed the crop
in the State was in an exceedingly bad condi-
ton, started Wheat strong. This statement
met with a good deal Of criticism, however
and after a strong effort, the bears succeeded
in causing a loss Of the greater part of the
advance at which trading had commenced. Pri-
vate crop reports were plentiful and on the
whole bad ever, but liquidation of May
holdings prevented any extensive advance dur
ing the greater part Of the forenoon. The I'LL
nois report, however, was too sensationally bad
to be ignored, and II asserted itself later in the
and short selling Of July. The latter was of
benefit to the market later, when shorts took
fright and contended with bulls for the limit
of offerings. Western primary market receipts
were light and clearances fair. The world s
visible supply decreased CSC, 600 bushels. Really
ing near the end of the session account Of
a bearish crop summary covering the Southern
States and a statement on reliable authority
that 80 per cent Of spring seeding would be
done in ten days resulted in loss Of nearly all
the advance. July reached premium of nc
over May. July opened at 751S475Ac, declined
to INC. advanced to 76zc, declined to 74Ssc
and closed at 74%c. May followed July.
Corn disappointed holders proving very indif-
ferent to the wheat excitement. Prices ruled
steady, but with narrow limits. May corn
closed &c lower
Oats were strengthened by Bradstreet's state
ment of the available supply, as it showed a
decrease Of 631, 200 bushels for the week This
about three times larger than the visible
decrease given yesterday. May oats closed a
shade lower.
Scattered outside buying and coverings
strengthened provisions. There was a good
deal of changing from May to July. May pork
closed SC higher.
The range in lard and ribs was small
The leading futures ranged follows:
