CHICAGO. April SO.-wheat market some
thing of a repetition of Yesterdays showing
weakness early and closing strong. The
weakness today. however, lasted longer, and
the net gain for the day by no means as
pronounced Trade was disposed to hammer
the market early. although this was done
with more than the recent caution, because
of the lower temperatures and cloudy weath-
er west and southwest. the rains at numoer
of points in Nebraska and the official forecast
of showers in Kansas tonight
Corn ranged higher with wheat and on
prospects of continued light receipts. May
deliveries Monday expected to be l1perai'
There was more May liquidation early, but as
on Yesterday it was taken by cash concerns
and shorts There nevertheless was turther
widening of the May discount, which is at
more than full carrying charge below July
Further liquidation of oats by May longs
early but the market rallied with other
grains. Yesterdays largest buyers sold on the
rally. however, and the advance was not
we'll maintained. Crop advices were much
better ~
Entire list of provisions sharply higher;
Trade not large. Offerings were limited ana
the market was responsive to buying, which
was of much the same sort as yesterday, but
NOT as large.

Associated Press1

NEW YORK, April 30.-The market
today reflected a recurrence of un-
easiness over the cotton market stu
alton and also attacked the sustain
ing force of the demand from shorts
owing to the large reduction OF the
short interest effected yesterday ana
which was the cause of the rally III
prices then J..
Some sensational rumors were IN
circulation regarding the acton OF tne
so-called cotton pool and the conse-
ouences which might be involved IN
the carrying speculative position IN
that article. The enormous deliveries
of Nav cotton, of which notices were
filed Yesterday to the extent OF lIo'UUO
baes, Indicate the heavy stakes.
The tone of mercantile reviews dld
not serve to clear up the uncertainty
felt over the business prospects, ana
the blowing out OF addltlonal stacks oy
iron furnaces kept attention FOCUSED
on the iron trade recession. Reports
of cancellation of orders for railroad
euuipment by some of the import
ant western railroad systems suggested
further elements of depression IN the
branches of the iron and steel TRACE.
THE influence of the proposed In
crease In freight rates by western rail-
road systems seemed to have passed
awlv and there was revived discus
sion, also, of the effect of damage to
crops.
A decline in discount rates in the
London and Berlin discount rates
was a feature of the day, and foreign
exchange rates here showed yielding
tendency
The hank statement showed clearly
the Necessity the banks had been under
of scaling down their credit in order
to conserve the reserve within the
legal requirements. Actual cash hold
ings decreased some $13,5OO,OOO, the
trust companies having taken over
some cash in connection with the ex-
tension of their loan account.
Bonds were easy. Total sales, par

 Was a Great Fox.
 The wonderful animal shot by Frank Pierce near the Rhode Island line Fri day turns out to be a great fox. This was decided when the animal was brought here Saturday. It is neverthe- less a very peculiar looking animal, different in color, form and other characteristics as compared to the na- tive red fox, and these facts at first caused a conclusion that some quite remarkable kill had been made. The fox is of a type rarely seen in this section and has cat-like ears and claws.
