WATCH FOR CROP SCARE.

Chicago, April 5.-Bullish sentiment
spread today among spectators IN
wheat. The trade was inclined to watch
sharply for signs of crop scare, ana
gave prompt heed to reports OF dam
age to late sown fields in Nebraska,
Illinois and Kansas. In this connection,
too, the Ohio state report putting the
condition of winter wheat at 81 per
cent, falling off Of two points as COM
pared with a month ago. and diminish
ing receipts southwest counted against
the bears. The opening here was the
same as last night to II On higher.
July started at 96A to 96B, a shade to
h@A up and rose to 81 u.
After little further gain the market
reacted owing to lack OF outside de-
mand. The close was easy but ~ on
net higher for July at 96Bc.
The fact that the bulls were Wiling
to support corn on all little setbacks
made that cereal firm. Profit taken on
the part of longs furnished most of the
bit supply. May opened unchanged to u
sixteenth higher at 76N to 763s @76h,
touched 76A @76% and then advanced
to 76%c. s5e ..g.S
"A further advance followed but be-
cause of realizing was not held. Inc
close was steady h@A up for May at
76h@76Mc.
Oats turned stronger with other
grain. Business however was not large.
May started " to h@A dearer at 30 -
to 55h@55N and ascended to 55%c.
An advance at the yards lifted pro,
visions all around. First sales ranged
from q shade off to TIC higher with
