CHICAGO. April 25.--Wheat--An
early break, due to lower cables was
welcomed by local bears and by com.
mission houses, who had resting or
ders. There was quick recovery from
the early loss, and prices throughout
the morning ranged well over those
of yesterdays close. Bearish factors
seemed to have been we'll discounted.
The influences which helped prices
advance were better cash demand
for all grades. renewed complaints OF
damage to the growing crop, and
further confirmation of late seeding
In our northwest and Canada. The
outstanding factor In the wheat situa.
ton Is. that despite the political COM
plications prices are very little lower
than before the beginning of the
political CRISIS. It should be kept in
mind that prospects for over produc-
ton this year are light and below the
average and consumption will doubt
less be equal If not greater than that
of the proceeding year.
Corn-The corn situation keeps
battling, despite the facts that the
cash interests are good buyers of the
May delivery which has strong effects
Of other months. Shippers report a
limited demand and difficulty in Sc
curing cars to move previous sales,
on the other hand the seaboard is
apparently getting liberal receipts.
for clearances from time to time are
large. 1t would seem advisable to
await the volume of delivery on May
contracts before taking the buying
side.
Oats-The situation In oats keeps
much the same as it has been for the
May by tired holders and the buying
of the July by cash interests consti-
tute the bulk Of the trade. The cash
demands are good.
