Chicago, April 2-Bullish sentiment up-

visual speculation. AT the close May wheat

May oats sc higher. Provisions closed 21sc

Wheat.
Many things contributed to the strength

there was additional buying by the bull
crowd that has been manipulating July
corn. Cash trace was improved, ana Sample
people reported that indications poinIed

Corn.
Corn trade was disdppointingly slack. The
big manipulators in July options were not
Ill evidence, and the market settled into It's
normal condition. Trade was mixed with
little desire 10 trade one way or the other,
but the buying was better tnan the selling
side. Cash conditions helped the market
materially, though weakened cables were
somewhat depressing. At times there was
marked anxiety over what the bull crowd
would do. but nothing eventful happened.
Southwestern news was brllish. but the
outside influences were only slightly effec-

May corn opened steady. sold down to 6Oc,

Oats were dull. Receiving-houses did
some buying. The market was fairly strong,
but the range of fluctuations was narrow.
Cash length and the tone of the other

were Us cars.
