APATHY PERVADES ALL THE
GRAIN PITS AT CHICAGO.
CORN is UNDER HE BAN OF
MANIPULATION.
Wheat Loses Strength as the Skies
Grow Clearer-Little Do
ing i'll Oats.

Chicago, June H-Apatby pervaded the
pit Of the Board of Trade to-day. Traders
paid little attention to anything but wheat
and not much to that. Inasmuch as wet
weather has ruled the pit for the last week.
when prospects for clearing skies were re
ported, wheat lost its strength. Oats
sympathized somewhat. but corn was IN
der the ban OF manipulation and held firm.
AT the close July wheat was @4dsc lower,
July corn 1s4hc up, July oats lsc down.
Provisions closed 7l2c dow nfor everything
on the list.
Wheat.
Late selling developed the only activity
that the wheat pit experienced to-day At
the outset cables were lower, indicating
better weather in France and England.
The Southwest sold liberayly, in spite oil
the fact that the country still had a
soSgy blanket spread over it and more
rains were falling. Commission-houses
took a little stuff on the score that not
since the Letter deal have there been such
clear indications that stocks Of old wheat
are practically exhausted. y belief then
seemed to take hold OF the crowd that line
weather was at hand. Private kilograms
buoyed bears up 10 this opinion. and when
the leading elevator interest began selling
very freely the crowd was sure a reaction
WAS setting in. All this while the pit was
very dull.
As the selling progressed a gradual de,
cine ensued. and July. which had opened

States hindered movement and grading. but
the lower cables and the wheat weakness
Offset the bUll'sh factors. and the p#J was
left much to itself. In spite of the lifeleSs
nature of the pit. corn held very firm.
Two rumors Were going the rounds reia-
tive to the big deal in July options. One
was that the Wall street crowd was ship
ping out cash stuff. The other had it that
J. Ogden Armour, rather than the Wall
street crowd, was the manipulation.
On these rumOrs the crowd fought shy of
the pit, especially as there was no big SELL
