CHICAGO G., AIN AND PROVISIONS.
wheat and Corn Drop Ten Cents and Pro-
visions A Dollar at Opening.

Chicago, April 1s.-Upturns In wheat val
ues today resulted from export interests
buying nearly 5000, 900 bushels May delivery
and also purchasing literally OF the July
option. On the advance, May showed at
one time n bulge of 10 cents over the low
est level of the season. The close was I'M
settled at s2.32A D2.32h for May and
SI.97H ml.s7S for July, with the market as
a whole &c TO SAC above yesterdays finish.
Other leading staples, too, all scored net
gains--corn IL M3Sc, oats NC TO TAG
INC and provisions 20 q 62c.
Assertions that foreign government inter
ests controlled millions OF bushels Of Chi
cago contracts for grain acted rs a stimulus
to bullish sentiment regarding wheat en-
tirely aside from the big acquisitions for
Europe today. Besides, gossip was current
that all available offerings were being alb
sorbed for export account In other markets
as we'll as Chicago. and that prices as high
as IS cents over Chi o July were obtain
able at the Gulf Of Mexico. Domestic
millers were also said to have resumed ac-
tive buying and to have made large sales
Of flour. ~
One OF the chief influences which at first
gave wheat prices a temporary setback was
an enlarged estimate of the stock on hand
in Canada. 1t was said the aggregate was
10000. 900 bushels as against recent COM
putatlons of $4,000, 900 bushels. Excellent
weather conditions both in the United States
and Canada together with better crop ad-
vices operated also for a while as a tran
silent handicap on tn. bulls.
Corn paralleled the action of wheat and
assembled very close TO the highest figures
on the crop. The volume Of trade, though
was rather light. In oats brisk demand
from cash l.ouses and the seaboard made a
strong market almost from the beginning
Messages from the south told Of heavy sub
sttution Of oats for corn.
Provisions rallied when grain turned de-
cislvely upward. In the earlier dealing the
market was depressed by the weakness of
hog values.

weaker prices at Chicago acted as q check
Of the lower market this morning. but
packers, who at the outset limited that they
wanted lambs quarter lower, were not
long in getting their offers up to a steady
basis. They made the bulk OF their pur-
chases at good steady to strong figures.
and In spots advances Of &c and even i0c
were noted. Movement started early and
nearly NIL the lambs being OF a desirable
sort, bulk Of the offerings changed hands
in good season, practically all the iambs
starting for the scales before II o'clock.

the killer market has moved up consid-
erably In the last two weeks. while feeder
buyers are reducing their figures as the
season advances, and the chances, are tina,
with prospects, for moderate supplies right
along now feeder buyers will not get in

the result that prices everywhere are break

Yearlings especially are drag on the mar

For the third successive time buyers
were In almost complete control Of the
hog market, and. In fact the decline en-
forced was the greatest that has been reg
istered since the drop started. Packers
started out bidding a quarter lower on
the best hogs but some shipper buying at
10000 lower figure caused killers to raise
their offers and they too bought their first
hogs 10000 off. Sales made this way were
OF pretty carefully selected stuff, though,
and when the decent strings started NOV
ing 1t was at fiat zoe decline. Bulk Of the
batter hogs sold this way but the market
kept getting a little easier right along az
the day advanced. and towards the later
end Of the morning flat quarter reductions
werasnoted even on some OF the pretty de-
slrable punches.
