Chicago. July 26.-Export sales OF "a
boatloads helped today to give the
wheat market a hoist. Higher LIVER
pool cables brought about a strong
start, traders generally recognising
there was lively chance of export
business Reports OF heavy rains de.
laying the harvest In Russia were
given more attention than usually
would have been the case. The mar
ket. however. developed tendency at
times to ease back. owing to further
favorable advices regarding the spring
crop outlook.
Sentiment In favor Of the buh side
did not gain full possession OF the Dit
until the last hour. N,rhe reason was
that simultaneous with 2 the export
buying the wires were hot with dis
patches telling Of black rust in the
Canadian northwest. Rains In Kansas
and Nebraska discouraged speculative
holders OF corn. The bulge In wheat
resulted temporarily In q firmer tone.
Weather that favored bringing In
new oats for immediate delivery had a
depressing effect on Quotations. es-
pecially the July option. Provisions
advanced with hogs and because OF the
lighter run OF western packing centers.
