Feet; CORN ALSO DOWN.

Chicago, April 3.-Heavy rain fall in
Kansas where most needed carried
down the price of wheat today with

same variation from Saturday night
as the whole list taken together.

led to sharp rally, but the effect did
not last The close was weak with May

OF wheat, Notwithstanding some COM
mission house buying IN account of wet
weather. May opened unchanged to "
to 47c and fell back to 46k @46Hc.
Covering by shorts turned prices up
ward bit, but there was complete re-
action later. The close was steady at
46A c for May. Just shade under Sat
urday nights level.
Oats suffered from considerable
pressure but proved more stubborn
than either grain. May started at the
same level as Saturdays close to d
shade at 29A @29Hc, touched 2sAc
and recovered to zoe.
With the hog run far ahead Of last
year. provisions took something Of a
tumble. First sales were to 10c cheap-

Berlin Critics Hostile

BERLIN. May A.-Lillfan Nordica,
who in response to an invitation from
Prince Henry Of Prussia appeared at the

American star to feel the resentment

main away. The press lameRts the APP

critics remarks that Nine Nordica may
be good enough for America and Eng
