Chicago, June 1.-Wheat = A little
scattered buying of wheat by commits
sion houses on an early break was fol-
lowed by fairly general local short COW
ering. On this, the market advanced to
nearly last nights closing price when
scattered realizing started a fresh de-
cline, encountering stop loss orders and
closing near the bottom. "a TO 3ss
lower. One of the most important feat
ures of the days trade was the LIBERAL
buying of July and selling Of Septem-
Der by one Of the largest local elevator
interests. Bearish crop news and un-
settled political conditions We're the in
huential factors. There was good
demand for old cash wheat and prem
iums for both hard and red were wider
than those prevailing yesterday. There
was a fair inquiry for wheat for export
and the seaboard reported sales of 300
900 bushels old wheat, il addition to
100000 bushels worked late.
Corn-Weakness in wheat and the
offering of Argentina corn al the sea
board at considerably less than it can
be laid down from here resulted in 2
reversal of form in corn, which was
strong early on buying by commission
houses and shorts. The prospects Of
unsettled weather caused the early
strength. The market was also helped
by the fact that primary receipts were
light compared with corresponding day
last year Crop reports were mixed,
the Iowa weekly report showing con-
siderable damage done by heavy rain,
bu, this was offset by the expectation
of an increased acreage especially in
the south.
Oats-Buying Of oats by cash houses
was the feature in an early advance.
The break in other grains, however,
proved more than enough TO counter
act reports Of good demand and large
cash sales. Crop prospects are gen
orally satisfactory and while the condi-
ton Of the growing crop is estimated
lower than that of last year at this
time an increase Of nearly per. cent
in the acreage indicates a larger crop
than that of the previous season.
Professionalism the hog situation
was generally considered bearish pack
.rs were credited with supporting the
market on an early break and local
sellers bought on an advancing market.
The disparity between our prices and
what could be obtained for product if
shipping conditions were normal re-
strains the general trade from pressing
the market.

Strenath and Prices Fluetuate With

Chicago, June Fresh declines In
the price OF wheat resulted today from
lower cable quotations and from COM
paratively favorable weather Pros
poets of rain over the southwest, how
ever, tended later to rally the market.
On the other hand, a reduction IN the
price of -four at Minneapolis counted
somewhat against the bulls. After
opening 9. to ~ cent down. the mar
ket underwent a little further setback
and then scored moderate upturn.
Afterwards uncertainties in regard TO
foreign relations appeared 10 have an
influence in bringing about new de-
clines. The close was heavy at 2&4
to SIS under last night.
Demand from the seaboard raised
the price of corn. Predictions of ad
verse weather led also TO an increase in
buying. The opening which ranged
from the same as last night to Is and
!. cent higher. was followed by gains
all along.
The market later receded owing to
the pronounced fall in the value Of
wheat and becaues OF bea-ish offers
from Argentina. The close was weak

Oats went down with wheat. The

ence was the piling up OF lard in the
local warehouse stock.
