CHICAGO, June 15.-Despite disap-
pointing cables and fine crop prospects,
the wheat market developed considera-
BILE frmness to-day, and the July deliv-
cry closed A@asc higher, July corn
sold 111ac improved at the end OF the
session. July oats were 11s@1A up and
provisions from shade higher to &c
higher
Though the session in the wheat pit
was quiet there was surprising
change in the tone of the market. With
Liverpool prices down and continue
ton of excellent weather the day began
with a modest array of sellers and July
wheat opened Nc lower at $3.50 to zoe
and declined to 69A @697sc. All Offer
ings were taken by one or two commits
sion houses and this started a rumor
that the buying was for export. The
market quickly turned and advanced
with a few reactions to 703s 070%c.
Under profit taking there was a slight
reaction, the close was firm and 1s@$sc
higher at 701ac. Seaboard clearances
of wheat and -four were equal to $685.
900 bushels and primary receipts $751;
600 bushels. Minneapolis and Duluth
reported 1872 cars against 439 last week
and 523 a year ago. Local receipts
were las cars, ten of contract grade.
Improved cables and the smallness of
tocks on hand more than matched bear
ish weather conditions and the corn
msrke from a firm beginning developed
surprising strength. The effect of
ollldll IGCtlplS was ltll dis uluCu III Iu0
cash market as in futures. There was
an excellent cash demand and shorts
were in furry to cover. Several COM
mission houses took considerable guam
titles presumably for expert. July
corn sold between 423sc and 433sc, clos
ing strong and 1@1Bc up at the high
price. Local receipts were 230 cars, ten
of contract grade.
Oats benefited much by the strength
in the corn pit. July was in steady de-
mand by commission houses and shorts
showed a disposition to get away from
it. There was good country demand.
July sold between 271sc and 2SA @28sc
closing strong and 1A@1Ac improved
at 2S]sQ28Ac. Local receipts were 141
cars.
Provisions were quiet but the market
had a stronger under tone on better
prices for hogs. Trading was light on
tn whole with an early demand for ribs
and lard by packers, the only feature.
July pork sold between s14 20 and
s14 771a, ciosing 21ac higher at s14 rs.
July lard ranged between So 80 and
So So, closing sc improved at the top
price. July ribs sold from IS O00
5 021a to IS 05@S O71s, closing a shade
higher at S. 05.
