THE CHICAGO MARKET.

CHICAGO. March 31.--wheat prices
made further gains during early trad
ing today, the May delivery advancing
The more distant options showed gains
of about n. Shorts and leading eleva-
tor interests were lively bidders for the
May delivery, the demand being based
chiefly on small stocks in store here
Continued fair weather in Kansas
strengthened the new crop months.
Opening quotations were * to u, those
on the May delivery being at 1l4$ to
114ss. July opened at 1851 TO 1854 and
September at 1855 to 1854, During the
first hour May advanced to 1i5A, while
July and September made only slight
gains over the opening figures.
Moderate frmness was manifested in
the corn market at the start because
of the strength of wheat. but offerings
we're too liberal for the demand. which
resulted in declines in all deliveries.
Prices at the opening were a shade TO
Il higher than yesterdays inal figures,
with May at 6s9A to 6SB. Later May
dropped to s2%.
Trading in the oats pit was quiet and
prices were inclined to sag In sympathy
with the h~eaviness of corn. The May
delivery opened unchanged at 1875, sold
at 43& and then fell back TO 4S1a-
Provisions were unsettled, although
sentiment in the pit was generally
bearish. After opening pa higher to Is
lower the market became still weaker
during the first few minutes. Later,
however. much of the loss was re-
gained. Opening quotations on the May
deliveries were: Pork, 2o.sS; lara,
1871. and ribs. 1S.07h.
Later in the day the wheat market
weakened. owing to a slump in corn.
September declined TO 1.05h and July
to 1.osGM. May held within the limits
set early in the session. Shorts bid
prices up again late in the day, and the
market closed firm, with May up y, at
1.i4Ts. July closed + higher, at losla'

Reactions from their opening figure
reached a point in some other standard
stocks. Buying orders were distributed
at the low level, and the market
turned upward briskly again, many
stocks returning to their first prices
or above.
Noon-Conhicting influences at work
kept the price movement of stocks ir-
regular. Early selling was said to come
from Boston from a further disturbance
over the Grady mining episode. The

prompted some professional selling.
The strong rally followed a fail in for
