Future Grain and Provisions.

CHICAGO. April Prospects OF rain caus-
ed general selling of wheat to-day. All cereals
closed weak July wheat being down is al 1ac;
corn was of 1d1Sc, and oats show a loss
Of i4sc- Provisions closed 20@2212c higher.
Predictions of favorable weather caused a
bearish sentiment in the wheat pit at the
opening. The July delivery was MGAc to
4 a Ssc lower at S75a to 81 %c For time the
market held around the opening figures but
lack Of any strong support soon began to be
felt and prices started downward. The fact
that foreign grain markets closed to-day
tended TO restrict the volume Of trading, as
did the approaching holiday here tomorrow.
The absence of the usual activity in the pit
in itself, was depressing influence. Weak
ness il all cash grains, after recent strength
took any remaining enthusiasm out of the
bulls and caused considerable liquidation OF
lcns wheat The declines in Northwestern
markets were another element In the situation
that encouraged sellers. Pit traders hammered
the market Dersstently throughout the day
Notwithstanding the moderately bullish crop
reports from Missouri and Ohio Final quo
tstions on July were at s62sc. after the price
had touched s6hc. May ranged between 9412c
and 968c. closing at 94Ac.
The early corn market was steady on
moderate commission house demand but
toward TIE noon hour a>sellng movement set
in that caused q severe break. July opened
unchanged to MUAc lower at 5315m53kc to
5$He; After selling between 52a4c and 5s7sc
the close was at 52% @525sc. May ranged be-
tween 50 nc and 81 &c and closed at SIC
The oat market subjected TO raid
early in the session, heavy selling of the Nav
option by pit traders and commission houses
causing much weakness. The close was weak
