New York, April l6-No new interest
was awakened In ths stock market to-
day. an there was the same liStless drift
of prices and languid operations as for
most OF the time last week. The activ-
ity OF the market IS on a diminishing
scale from day to day.

TO WINTER WHEAT
SENDS MARKET UPWARD.
LIBERAL SELLING is Fol-
LOWED BY RALLY.
Trading in Corn Pit Is Light. but
Tone Firm-ProvisiOns Prac-
tically Unchanged.

Chicago, April 1S.-Damage to winter
wheat in sections of Missouri heretofore
escaping caused a net advance OF lake
to-day in July wheat; corn gained Sc;
oats are UP Lsc; provisions are practically
unchanged.
WHEAT.
Liberal selling orders from the North
west. where he weather was reported
favorable for spring seed n caused wheat
TO open easier Trading during the earlier
part Of the session was small. The only
material demand was from sections Of
the Southwest where damage to wheat Is
reported 70 he incrsasins daily, July
In the absence Of support. the market
declined to SEC. At this point the South
western crop reports brought fair buying
orders. AZ a result the market gradually
rallied. one Of the features was the eau
tious manner in which the room traders
allowed wheat to slip through their fingers.
There was buving on every rec. ssion. \
consequence was TO make even the least
conservative traders move slowly. The
influencing factor was bad reports from
lions in Missouri. not previously mentioned
III such connection. From SIC July grad
ually advanced 10 ss'tc, closing firm at the
top. May sold between e2Hlc to a2i@c. and
closed at s2'sc. Tn visible supply showed
n small Increase. as compared with a big
decrease last wear.
t~learances OF wheat and -four were equal
to Sl.eiI bu. Primary receipts were $685.
3ie. against 3,5,e24 bu. last year. Mime
apolis. Duluth and Chicago reported re-
ceipta of Sal cars against $50 last week
and 2S n year ago.
CORN.
Trading in the corn pit was light. but
the tone was in the main firm. The OPEN
Ing was barely steady on reports OF wealth
er favorable for farm work. The outlook
in this respart brought out considerable
long corn. Later. inquiries for the cash
article came in and helped materially. An
influential factor was. the much smaller
proportion of contract grade shown in the
receipts to-day as compared with Satur-
day. The fact emphasized a fear that
corn of contract grade IS growing s,arce.
July opened unchanged to sc higher. at
49A449isc. sold between 1880 and 50asc,
closing at 5Disc. May ranged 51Lc
to 52hc. and closed at SIC. Local receipts
were u cars, with is of contract grade.
OATS.
Trading In oats was largely by scaipers
and uneasy shorts. The weather was re-
ported as being more favorable for seed
ing. but too cold for promoting growth of
what has already been July opened
isQssc lower. at 37isc to 31ssc, ranging be-
