Chicago. May 2S.-Bears had their
turn at the grain markets today. Gen.
eral conditions were moderately bearisl,,
but. as on yesterday. it was the action
In the corn pit that turned the tables
and all grains on the list were forced
to a weakness greater than yesterdays
was strong. The whole situation hing
ed ON the liberal a~cceptances of Chica-
go bic by country holders of corn.
These were so much greater thar had
been anticipated that prices broke bad
ly in the corn pit and other grains suf-
fered sympathetically. July wheat
closed Ia to 1Sc. July corn TX to 1%c
down and July oats &c lower. Provis-
ions closed unchanged to a shade lower.

COTTON

New York. May 2S.-The cotton a
ket opend quiet and firm. with prices
1 to 3 points h,sher, in esponse to firm
Liverpool cables and light receipts.
While there were occasional slight set
backs later, the general course of the
market during the balance of the day
was upward on covering by local and
outside shorts, prompted by the close
proximity of the holidays and by less
bearish crop accounts from several
sections of the belt. The private ad-
vices from the south told of increased
export demand for spot cotton and
more inquiry from northern spinners.
The weather reports gave light rains
in portions of the belt today n
noted unseasoEably low temperatures
throughout the northern section. The
forecast pointed to general rains in the
belt tomorrow Belief that Liverpool
will be still higher tomorrow or the
wet weather forecast and better spot
demand in the south prevented the
bears from making vigorous attacks
upon the market in the late session.
Again, a scare of belated May shorts
Influenced the rest of the list consid-
erably. That Crtion started 2 points
above last nights final bid, at GA, and
continued TO advance until $50 was
reached. The final bid was 9.27, with
the fii;al offer $50. The market was at
no tine particularly active and COM
missile houses were Indifferent from
the stirt. Public operators were dis
posed to not only await the passing of
the holidays, but to hold off for the
