of lower cables, the wheat market opened
somewhat unsettled. with May unchanged 10
1c lower. at ee@97c. Initial quotations on
July unchanged to 1sc lower, at 91A@
92Ac. Commission houses, however, We're
active buyers at the start, owing to reports
from Russia that wheat crop prospects were
unfavorable. Business was Of considerable
volu lie. and the rush to secure wheat was the
cause of temporary rise to 99c in May de-
livery. The price of July likewise advanced
to 93c before there was sufficient taking
TO cause a reaction Many of the pit traders
were bearishiy Inclined and on the bulge were
easily induced to take the selling SIDE Offer
ings became 50 lberal that the advance was
lost. May declined to 97c, while July
reacted to 9l12c. Then some additional bull
news regarding crop prospects began to cir
culate. with resultant change in sentiment.
The Ohio crop reUort showed the condition of
wheat TO be only 90, as compared with "a
year ago. The drouth in the Southwest still
continued, and a good cash demand was re-
ported from the Northwest. Many of the
earlier sellers began to buy. but offerings were
hard to find There was a good demand for
July, and the price OF that option rose TO % Ac,
while May also showed a gain of cent or
more. The market was held firm until the
close. when another decline occurred .,on lib
eral profit taking Prices at the finish were
steady. with May at 97c and July at 92%c
Active buying by several large commission
houses caused strength in the corn market.
