Chicago Grain and Provision.

CHICAGO, May l3--A sharp reaction toward d better level occurred in the grain markets today, that in wheat being helped by damage reports. Protit-taking by shorts was also influential. July wheat closed 14 higher, July corn A up and July oats 1ac improved. Provisions closed a shade to 121A higher.
 Weakness at the opening in wheat which was at 7O9s to 10Ss for July delivery. was caused by heavy worlds shipments. an increase in the quantity on passage, liberal receipts and lower cables. When sellers, influenced by these matters. had disposed of their wheat 1t was found there were buyers in the market for more, and under light offerings and profit-taking by shorts the decline of a shade to 4d% was recovered. The reac- tion caused shorts to apprehend some underlying force in favor of values and this together with reports of damage In the Southwest, particularly in Kansas, gave a sharp rally to market that had ruled steadily upward. Under this acute reaction of sentiment the price rose rap idly to 72. Exporters reported ZZ loadS taken. Seaboard clearanceS in wheat ana four were equal to 63S.000 bushels, while primary receipts were 6l6000, against 5zO,- cars, three of contract grade. Minneapo- lis and Duluth reported SO5 cars, against S42 last week and BPS a year ago. world shorts. with India to hear from, were 4,9l5,OO0 bushels. against an estimate or 750OOO0 bushels. The visible supply de- creased 907 GOO bushels. Quantity Of wheat and flour on ocean passage showed an increase of 600 bushels.
 Corn exhibited marked weakness at the opening owing to lower cables and good receipts. A strong demand suddenly de- Veloped among the shorts, however, ana a pull market was the result. The local buyers were aggressively selling as the market advanced but buying back at a loss. July corn opened %@% to BQ Ac lower at 43 to 4Sla and early in the ses- sion 1t became apparent that the pit had .l1 rit1Cr- lfeylff of shorts to cover at the opening price with the intention of securing their profits buoyed the market, which, aided by the development of strength in wheat, rose steadily to 4424.

London Financial Cablegram.

NEW YORK, May 13.-The Commercial Advertisers London financial cablegram says: The stock market was nervous at the opening today. but the tension was soon relieved by the early announcement of tine St0ch Exchange Committee the buying in Northern Pacific was sus- pended until further notice and fixing the marking up of prices at 14O. Business in general was restricted to remarkable degree. The tone, however. was hopeful. The American department was practically idle Prices were wide in such dealings as there were. but there were hardly any. Contango rate was 6; some extortionate lenders were demanding [, but there was no difficulty about the carry-over, ex- cept for a few weak-kneed speculators. Northern Paciflcs were at "evens' in &C., cordance with MT. Morgan's promise to lend them at that rate after the consult tation yesterday of the Morgans, Roths- childs and Cashels. Failures are not now expected. but arbitrageurs avoid dealing. In the afternoon session there was some renewed uneasiness caused by report that New York had cornered Union Pa cific which came over the cable at 135 againt 120 asked here.

MARKET FOR FUTURES
TRADE RESTRICTED TO ROOM
 SETTLEMENTS.
South and West Continue to Unload Cotton Purchased in Belief That July Was to Be
 Cornered.

NEW YORK. May 13.-The cotton mar ket today was narrow and tame with trade restricted chiefly to room settle ments. Prices were pre-disposed to de- cline, there being almost nothing in the way of speculative support, while the reg ulation bear influence stood in the path of any material improvement. On the opening the feeling was steady, with prices unchanged to 4 points lower. This ruling proved to be about the best level of the day. Soon after the call selling for Southern. Western and room accounts sent July off to 7.5S and October to |.
 and for the rest of the morning sentiment
 was bearishly inclined with business as a general thing in the direction of liqui-
 dation of old accounts. European cables were unfavorable. receipts at the ports were heavy, the weather South was more favorable and rains were reported in Central Texas. Estimates for large re- celpts again tomorrow led to fresh selling for both accounts in the early afternoon under which July sank to 7.55. While there were reactionary periods later on profit taking, the market appeared heavy and in shape to again weaken under the slightest provocation. The South and West continued to unload cotton pur- chased some time ago, in belief that a July corner was in store. The market was finally quiet with prices net 3gs
