GRAIN BEARS BLUFFED BULLS.
TRADES WERE MADE

Chicago, May 7.-Gran spectators traded

pressed prices hard all around July wheat

July oats X lower. Provisions closed un-

There was a fair show of strength In
wheat at the outset on the influence of yes
terday's cash business and more rains last
night In the overwet Northwest Traders
soon changed their stand, however, on late
reports OF seasonable weather. The wealth
or man showed clear weather Southwest.
and, what was still more important, an cad
to the wet weather in the Northwestern
spring country for the present. Both these
localities sent in liberal selling orders on
the weather news aud their own markets
were weaker. This caused local specu or ;
TO lose sight Of bulllshly small receipts,
crop damage reports and fairly firm cables.
Longs deserted their holdings and threw
shorts covered their accounts yesterday,
BUYERS were scarce, except az good He

and cash business had little effect on the
market. Local receipts were thirty two

Corn started with good show Of strength

when wheat broke, the bulls began to con

their support. Bears jumped into the mar

part Of the session the market dragged.
July bull manipulation was stlll talked OF,

There are reports Of large loans during the
