TODAY'S MARKET REPORT

Chicago, April 10-WHEAT-wheat
prices made some show of strength today
Influenced by predictions of continued de-
mand from continental European countries
where reserves were said to be light and
where hopes of prompt shipment from
Argentia and Australia have been disap-
pointed The market was also bullishiy
affected by statements that the records
of the last % years indicate the chance
after April 1 for a substantial improve
ment in the winter crop is very slight
After opening %@Ac off to AGzsc up,
with May at S1.15B to S1.16as and July
at S1.13A to S1143s, prices scored a mod
crate general advance.
Many bad crop reports including word
of the presence of green bugs in Oklahoma
and of Hessian fly in Kansas tended later
to bring about decided upturns in value.
i feature was the buying of May options
here to remove hedges against sales of
Canadian wheat to Buffalo millers The
close was unsettled. &c to 1Ac net higher
with May at s1.17sz @1175s and July at
S115h M11514.
CORN-Corn developed weakness The
market lacked support. Opening prices,
which ranged from &c to 14e to Ac lower
were followed by further declines, but
then a rally.
The market hardened further when wheat
gave signs of decided strength. Prices
closed steady at HMHc net advance
OATS-Oats were governed by the action
of corn Reports as to seeding told of
good progress:
PROVISIONS-Lowerq quotations on hogs
had a bearish effect on provisions. Down
turns. however, were not radical.

London, June 13.-From the wood
ed region of southwest Russia to the
Rumanian frontier the Russians are
keeping up their tremendous offens.
i've against the Austro-Hungarians,
who have been reinforced on several
sectors by Germans. The advance of
the Russians is notable for the large
number of prisoners taken and the
enormous captures OF guns, machine
guns, ammunition and other war
stores.
In the week that has elapsed since
they first threw their attacks against
the Austrians, the Russians report
that they have captured approximate
ly 100000 officers and men and
forced back the organized lines of
their antagonists from the region of
the Volhynian fortress triangle to Ru-
mania. Having previously captured
Lutsk, the Russians now have retaken
DubnO, the second of the fortresses in
the Volhynian triangle held by the
Austrians, and are pressing the re-
treating Austrians westward. In Ca.

Austrians admit the withdrawal Of
their forces in northeastern Buko-
wilma. The Austrians all along the bat
tie front are putting up a stubborn
resistance, especially east of Kolki,
lying TO the north of Lutsk, where
they have forced back Russian ad-
vanced elements across the Styr river
and in the region Of Torgovitsky, at
Styr, south of Lutsk.
Three German infantry attacks on
Hill 304 at Verdun were repulsed Sat
urday night. Since then, fighting in
this region has been confined to bonn
bardments.
