TODAY'S MARKET REPORT.

Chicago, June 2.-WHEAT-Fresh de-
clines in the price of wheat resulted today
from lower cable quotations and from
comparatively favor weather Prospects of
rain over the southwest, however, tended
later to rally the market. On the other
hand a reduction in the pric of flour at
Minnea polls counted somewhat against the
bulls. After opening nc to 1Ac down,
wheat underwent a little further setback,
Afterward uncertainty in regard to the
foreign relations appeared to have an in
fluence in bringing about new declines.
Besides European demand was small. The
close was heavy at 2Ac to 3asc under last
night.
CORN-Demand from the seaboard gave
strength to corn. Predictions of adverse
weather led also to an increase of buying.
The opening, which ranged from the same
as last night to A@Ac higher, was fol-
lowed by gains all around.
pronounced fall in the value of wheat and
because of bearish offers from Argentine.

OATS-Oats went down grade with
wheat The firmness of corn was ig
nored.
PROVISIONS-Provi eased off in
consequence of lower prices for hogs. An
other bearish influence was the pil1ng up
of lard in the local warehouse stock.
