Grain Review

Chicago. April 14.-Except at the i'm
mediate opening, wheat traders today
seemed to be disposed to minimize the
seriousness of Mexican and German
difficulties. Assertions that the rain
fall in Nebraska was much less plenti-
full than has been supposed and buying

Word that the Holland American line
had yielded to strikers demands and
that efforts would be made to replenish
Dutch stocks of wheat was bullish

back in prices. The close was unsettled
varying from shode off to Sac net ad-
vance, with May at $1.16% q " and July
at $1.15. 49,.
Corn swayed with wheat. Lightness
of receipts tended to lift prices. After
opening hc off to a shade up, the mar
ket scored moderate general gain.
In the last part Of the day corn eased
off somewhat when wheat prices UNI
derwent a decided sag. The close was
steady a Is q Nc to q &C net advance.
Oats Cook the same general course as
other . eals.
Higl q prices on hogs gave strength
to provisions ...-
