 Chicago. May 13.-Liberal realizing sales based on favorable weather conditions for the growing crop of wheat in America caus- ed weakness today in the local wheat mar ket, the July delivery closing at I'd met loss of %c. Corn was up E @%c Oats were unchanged and provisions 2h d5c lower. The wheat market made a brief show of firmness at the start owing to the sharp bulge in the price of May corn but heavy sales by prominent longs soon caused a de- cline in all deliveries The selling was largely due to the excellent weather now prevailing over the entire winter and spring ada, and to talk of a shutting down of large number of flour mills in the Northwest due to an accumulation of stocks of flour. A number of prominent cash in- terests were free sellers of wheat during the last hour of the session but the mar ket closed easy
 Clearances of wheat and flour were equal to T6.000 bushels.
 Additional rain over the entire corn belt caused strength in the corn market The May delivery displayed the greatest strength and at one time was up Pc compared with yesterdays close. Shorts and shippers were easier bidders but offerings were light The close was strong.
 Trade in oats was quiet and the market was steady. Favorable weather for the growing crop offset the bullish effect of the bulge in corn July closed at 47c. Local re- ceipts were 31l cars. Provisions were easy owing to selling by local packers, which was based mainly on the exceedingly liberal receipts of live hogs at all Western packing centers. At the close July pork was 2hc lower Lard was down 2 la q DC and ribs were lAc lower.

May lS.-(Special )-Though the volume of receipts slackened up and then grew heavy agaIn. spirits of turpentins with all conditions considered was in pret- ty good demand during the past week and while prices at one time dropped to 42kc, sudden spurt of buying activity on the part of the larger exporters forcedvthe article back to 42Ac. at which the market opened firm yesterday. The openings last Wednesday May @ was firm at 42kc. The opening yesterday was firm at 4z%c. and the final call of the week was firm at 43g45c; net gain for week 2hc on out side level.
 There was just a trace of manipulative operations during the tail end of the week. This manipulative tendency, has not proved much in evidence since the beginning of the new year but for one day at least of the past seven there was considerable work of this character indluged in a quiet way.
 With general business sconditons of the country so slack. however, the main strength of the market should be the vol ume of receipts As has been mentioned previously the volume of receipts at the port have proven so far much in excess of those of last year. During the past week. however. the volume more nearly approach ed the normal volume of other seasons and while the arrivals reported yesterday were a possible exception to this rule tahe trade appears as rule to be optimistic.
