CHICAGO, May S.-A reversal of yester-
days weakness was manifested in the
wheat pit to-day and prices had a strong
upward tendency, July closing a.97sc high
er. Corn was up ssc, with oats AQ$sc high
er. but provisions were unchanged to l2izQ
15c lower.
There was good trade in wheat and the
principal feature was the absence OF sell
ing by the chief long, who, 1t is said, about
cleaned out his line of July yesterday when
he disposed of something like 100000 BUSH
els. Opening prices were firm on compare
lively steady cables, Liverpool being OF
only a trihe, notwithstanding the severe
break here yesterday, and July was a
shade to lsQkc higher, at 1ssQn3sc- Sell
ing by scalpers on improved weather re-
suited in an easier tone soon after the
opening and July sold of to 71lzc but
good scattered demand from commission
houses soon brought about a rally. There
were renewed reports of damage from the
chinch bug to the growing crop in the
Southwest, and this, together with the
the upward movement of prices, as did
active covering by shorts. Prices continued
to improve. the closing figures being at the
top notch of the day. July closed %q5sc

Corn was strong the greater part or the
day, but the volume of trading was rather
light. Offerings small early in the
session. A little liquidation set in during
the latter half which resulted In a slightly
easier tone, but the market soon rallied
again. Firm cables, fair cash demand
and reports confirming the lateness of the
crop in many sections were the chief bull
factors. After selling between 4411Q44ssc
and 45c July closed sc higher. at H7sc. Re-
ceipts were 22S cars, ten of contract grade.
The strength In wheat was a strengthen
ing influence in oats, but the main support
came from shorts who covered sales made
yesterday. There was fair trade through
out the day. May being especially active
and strong. Receipts were small but
showed some Improvement in grading.
Closing prices were firm, with July kQssc
higher, at 321sQ32Ac, after ranging between
315sc and 31Ac. Receipts were lis cars.
Trading in provisions was rather quiet,
with offerings about equal to the demand.
Opening prices were steady on the hog
situation and buying by packers caused a
little better feeling, but the advance was
not maintained, the close being easier. with

700; shipments, 100. The
combined receipts of cattle this week show
decrease OF 800 compared with the same time
last week. but an increase Of nearly 1850 over
the corresponding time a year ago. The receipts
to-day were smaller than for several days and
show decrease of $50 compared with last Fri
day and $50 compared with a year ago. About
the usual variety Of cattle was represented. but
there was quite scarcity Of the best export
steers and light steers that were equal to the
requirements in quality and flesh. There was
about the usual proportion of common to me-
dunn stock and cows and heifers. The market
opened with the demand again very limited
for the good heavy steers and the trading was
necessarily quiet. Final sales, however indi-
Gated that prices were practically the same as
might have been obtained for equal kinds yes
terday. There a very fair inquiry for good
light steers. and they showed as much strength
as any other class Of cattle; fair to medium
killers were by no means strong, but were not
considered any lower. There a fair demand
for the best feeding cattle at about steady prices
but thin stockers, which are plentiful. moved
slowly and a clearance could hardly have been
made without some sacrifice in prices. The
market for heifers continues only fair In COM
parison with the way other grades Of cattle are
selling but most dealers believed they got yes
terday's prices to-day. The good cows continue
rather scarce and show rather more strength
than any other class OF cattle. At a late hour
indications favored a satisfactory clearance Of
the desirable stock. Less than carload lots of
steers. averaging around 1900 to 1.4oO lbs. sold
heifers here to-day good enough to bring "a so
al. 80, and more than the usual number Of cows
sold as high as $3.50 Quotations:
