NEW YORK, May 28.-Upon the re-

PRODUCE.

CHICAGO, May 2S.-Dry weather in
spring wheat sections and Hessian fly
in the winter wheat had a bullish effect
to-day and July wheat closed k@Bc
higher. July corn closed Ac improved.
July oats unchanged and provisions
from a shade lower to 5@7kc higher.
July wheat opened firm and unchang-
ed to &c higher, at 1890 to 73Ac, with
q fair demand, but light offerings.
Weather conditions caused an immedi-
ate advance to 735s@73Ac and on seal
pers selling a reaction to 73h@73Ec
forward. Light receipts and advices of
damage to European and domestic
crops induced a stronger buying move
ment which frightened the shorts and
the market advanced steadily to 1890
74c at which price it closed firm and "
@5sc higher. Forty-two Dads were re-
ported for export. Seaboard clearances
of wheat and flour were equal to 1885,
900 bushels. Minneapolis and Duluth
reported ,9S cars against IS last week
and 43S a year ago. Local receipts
were III cars, six of contract grade.
Public and private stocks OF wheat in
Chicago were $3.50, 900 bushels. Con-
tract stocks showed a decrease OF 3d.
900 bushels.
Trade in corn was confined almost
exclusively to local covering. This
movement was induced by marked i'm
provements in the cash demand. De-
spite large receipts July opened from a
shade to Hc higher at 1880 to 1870
1880. After selling off to 4311z Q435sc
the market reacted to 44c, again sold
off to 43A @43Ac, rallied and closed
firm and Ac higher at 44c. Local re-
ceipts were 1852 cars, 80 of contract
grade.
Oats ruled firm on a good general de-
mand which was pretty well supplied
by local selling. July opened unchang-
ed at 2Sh Q28%c, sold between 2S%c
and 2Ssc and closed stea-y and I'M
changed at 28h@28%c. Local receipts
were $50 cars.
Provisions ruled quiet with an easy
tendency. Some firmness was shown
early on small receipts. July pork sold
between s14 80 and s14 621a, and closed
SC higher at s14 s2h. July lard sold
between IS 07h68 10 and s8-17h. and
closed 5@7hc higher at SIS 10. July
ribs sold between 81 S7k and 81 92h,
