CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET
Reported Shortage in Worlds Supply
of Wheat-Corn and Oats
Steady
BY Associated Press.

CHICAGO, May 1.-Deliveries of
wheat on May contracts today were
100000 bushels and it was claimed
that the bulk of this wheat was taken
by brokers who were trading for a New
York commission house. The belief
that this grain had gone into strong
hands caused a firm tone at the OPEN
ing in May and July deliveries. The re-
port that deliveries at Minneapolis on
May contracts were light also strength
ened the market. General rains
throughout the northwest also tended
toward higher prices. Later in the day
the market received fresh strength
from a statement by Bradstreets show
ing decline of 100000 bushels in the
worlds average supply of wheat and
flour. July opened M@Ac higher at
sac to 7SAc, sold up to 7s1s @79ssc
and closed at 79Ac.
The corn market was firm all day
The chief cause of the demand was wet
weather in the corn belt. July closed
The oats market was strong. The
close was steady, unchanged at 311s "a
81 Ac for the July option.
Trading In provisions was very quiet
and the market was barely steady. At
the close May pork was sc lower. lard
was unchanged and ribs were down

The big German bark Mneme, which
is now ready to sail, will not get away
for a day or so because of lack of sea
men. 1t is always trouble for a cap
tain of foreign vessel when they first
reach this coast to keep their men be-
cause of the fact that wages for seamen
are so much better here than on other
shores
Lumber cargoes still continue to
come into this port very slowly and as
a consequence there are a number of
idle men here at present.

NEW YORK, May 1.-The disinclna-

at the recovered level of prices estab-
lished yesterday early became manifest
in today's stock market. After a period
of dullness and hesitating fluctuations
prices began to recede and the fall be-

Liquidation, which had been withheld
with the idea that better prices might
be, obtained, came out again In large
volume when the downward course was
established. and aggravated the weak
ness of the market.
The force of the selling pressure car
far lower than the lowest prices touched

directions.
Developments in the money market
had an important bearing on the re-
newal Of liquidation. Loans were called
and call money ran up sharply during
the afternoon to 10 per cent. Some
forced at this rate and there appeared
TO be discrimination exercised against
some securities for collateral in loans.

The exchange at the clearing house to-
day amounted to S544 4,6lS 4o4, which is
above the average. The large dividend

other important financial transactions:

panies as a whole is in excess of the
immediate requirement of the law as
the. amount to be held, yet all of the
individual trust companies are up to the
requirement. Preparations by these COM
panies to replenish their cash reserve
may have a part in the shifting of loans
which disturbed the money market this
afternoon.
