PRICES RISE MODERATELY AFTER A
RATHER WEAK OPENING.
Only q Small Amount Of Business, Of
ferfnGs Being Lfght-Provisions
Weak, Closing Lower.

CHICAGO, May 5.-The wheat market was
weak at the start and early sales were at
decline. Firmness developed later, how
ever, and the close was strong, with July
1kGSc higher. Corn was strong, except
for lower opening. closing 4qssc higher.
Oats We're up SIC, and provisions showed
loss of 10c to 1711G20c.
Wheat was fairly active and showed de-
cided change in sentiment from yesterdays
market. Easier foreign markets and an
increase in contract stocks caused an easy
opening, July being off &c to hGAc at
72ssc to 72ssd721kc. The loss was more than
regained early in the session on buying,
which was credited to Armour, and later
advices of damage by fly to crops in the
Southwest created good demand which
carried July up to 73Ac, where 1t closed
with a gain of k@ssc. Offerings Were
light until late In the session, with the
sentiment largely bullish. Primary receipts
were S34,O12 blu, against .S24 bu last year.
Clearances of wheat and flour were equal
TO 263, S61 bu- Minneapolis and Duluth re-
ported receipts of 126 cars, which, with To-
cal receipts of G. cars, one of contract grade,
made total for the three points Of 1SS
cars. against LIZ last week and Isl year
ago.
Increased country offerings and marked
Improvement in grading caused lower
opening in corn, but there was strength
later in sympathy with wheat, and the
close was 14qssc higher for July at 447sQ
45c, after ranging between AssQ441zc and
451sc. Offerings were small and trade not
on a large scale. Commission houses were
good buyers and the crowd got short soon
after the opening. Receipts were BIS cars,
IS OF contract grade.
Oats were strong on buying by local
traders on all breaks due to improved
weather. There was some early selling on
increased receipts and better grade, but the
market soon strengthened in sympathy
with other grains and closed firm, July up
sc at 31kQ32c. after selling between 31ssc
and &c. The market was quiet owing TO
scarcity Of offerings. Receipts were 2l1
cars
Provisions opened steady on stronger
hog market, but the early gain was soon
lost on liquidation. and the market was
easy throughout the session. Trading was
light and without feature. July pork closed
at $l7O5, loss Of 10c. Lard was down 19Q
zoe at 50. while ribs were l0c lower at
$9.32h.

Indiana weekly Crop Bulletin.

w. T. Blythe, director of the Indiana
section of the climate and crop service Of
the Weather Bureau, in his review of the
week ending May says:
''The weather during the past week was
generally favorable for outdoor work and
blowing and planting were prosecuted Wig
orously- The temperature varied greatly,
however. the extremes ranging from up
wards of so degrees to several degrees be-
low the freezing point, and the daily mean
temperature from about II degrees above
TO about 16 degrees below normal; the ex-
treme high temperature occurred on the
18th and was followed by rain Cunning to
snow In the northern counties) and deci-
dedly colder Thursday and freezing or
heavy frost Thursday night; light to heavy
frosts occurred again on Saturday and
Monday mornings.
.'The fun effect of the freeze and frosts
upon the various crops cannot as yet be de-
termined. but ii is known that. excepting
the very late varieties in a few localities.
Strawberries in the central and south Sec
tons of the State were killed and that the
crop was seriously damaged in the north
ern section. Other fruit. including seeding
peaches not previously killed. cherries,
plums grapes currants, gooseberries. an,
pies and pears were more or less severely
injured Spring sown clover, early pota-
toes and garden truck were badly nipped
and In places cut to the ground; tomato
plants In places suffered also.
The sowing and resolving of oats Is
practically completed: the acreage is said
to be considerably less than last year and
less also than was contemplated early in
the spring. Wheat early sown oats, rye.
old clover and vegetation generally made
slow growth. and in several localities
wheat is reported as having an unhealthy
color.
Flowing for corn has progressed rapid
ly, and a little planting has been done i'm
some localities: the ground Is cloddy and in
bad condition.
In localities where tobacco is grown the
plants are showing one and two leaves but
will not be transplanted until the latter
half OF May

5.-Cattle-Receipts. $50; shipments. 80. The re-

ago, but nearly 500 larger than !. year ago.
Practically all kinds were represented, and the
quality generally was up to the standard of this
market the past few days. In the steer depart
ment the opening to-day was characterized by a
very different demand from all buyers, and with
statesmen asking fully steady prices the bidding
backward and unsatisfactory. 1t was soon
evident, however. that buyers did not intend
to take any part Of the supply at steady prices,
and they intmated that they would not want
a great many on any i~Ems. Later in the day
quite a number of odd punches and. a few loads
of steers sold at what were consi Tered 1oc to
15c lower prices, but at the close Of trade sew
eral loads, including some of the, best cattle
here, had not crossed the scales. III the market
for cows and hefers the demand was also less
urgent than IL has been for soms time past
and Il was more less difficult to establish
a trading basis, but finally there was some sell

LOCAL WHOLESALE TRADE
MISUNDERSTANDING MAY BUSINESS
is FAIRLY UNDER WAY.
Prices Steady to Firm, Except I'm Sea-

Grain Markets Are Light.

Already evidence Is ample that the trade
Of Mey is TO be record-breaking In volume.
Merchants I'm all lines speak of orders as
coming In freely. money conditions excel
lent and bills being met promptly despite
the fact that they have just passed through
tax paying time. The better feeling extends
TO ali departments of business. The dry
goods houses, boot and shoe merchants and
milliners report trade for April as having
been very satisfactory and May coming in
with equally promising results. Confec-
TONERS who do not look for very large
trade at this season of the year are enjoy
ing an excellent business-considerably in
excess of the corresponding period OF last
year. Wholesale grocers report trade as In
excess of the corresponding period of last
year. During the unsettled conditions in
heavy groceries, especially sugars and cof-
fees. retail merchants allowed their stocks
to become reduced, but have now begun
stocking UP freely and the travelling sales
men are this week sending in good orders.
Iron and steel merchants. as for some weeks
past. are having the best trade In their his
tory, despite the fact that In the early
spring they pushed trade vigorously. On
Commission row business hardly as
active yesterday as last week. Still, in the
aggregate, many goods were disposed of.
Choice apples are now so, high as to make
them somewhat OF luxury. Oranges, how
ever. We're never better In quality, and new
eP sold lower this market than at the
present time. Lemons, however, are moving
slowly, the weather having been too cool
TO create good demand. Irish potatoes
move slowly and concessions in prices are
made to effect trade. But few sweet pota-
foes are on the market. New potatoes are in
good supply, but most of them are small.
Strawberries. despite the prediction Of
commission merchants. were plentiful yes
terday. and some OF the fruit was choice.
The produce market continues firm, with
no break in the egg market as yet Poultry
Is In light supply and prices continue very
firm. Shipments to Eastern markets are
quite large. even at the high range Of prices
IN these markets Butter, while steady, can
hardly be said to be firm. Choice butter,
however. meets with ready sale at prices
quoted. In other lines, steady, firm Prices

a few loads OF strictly choice heavy hogs were

portant request from outside sources, and on
that account statesmen had more or less difficulty
in arranging terms with packers, but, in SYM
PATTY with other places. there was a stronger
sentiment prevailing, and it was only a ques-
ton of how much advance could be obtained
Finally the offerings were changing hands on
basis of about SC higher prices than yesterday s
average. and this apparently being agreeable
TO all concerned the trading was as active as
could be expected considering the number or
buyers IN the field. and satisfactory clear
the result Occasionally transactions
appeared 10c higher than yesterday but in most
cases Of this Kind part of the advance was due
to Improvement in quality In a number
of cases the market did not appear to be any
higher than yesterday. but representative sales
for the day indicate nearly sc gain, especially
far as the light hogs are concerned. Several
loads arrived after the market was practically
over. and the last sales did not represent any
ouotable change in prices compared with the
opening. Common light hogs to best heavies
