 In the last half of the session, the market turned sharply upward owing' to assertions that excessive heat had developed in the west. Temperatufes' in western Nebraska were said to be above 100. The market closed stron !. ? IS cents to ? 3-4 cents higher, with July $1.42 Is to $1.42 3-8 and August $143 5-8.
 Oats showed firmness compared with corn. Gossip was current that stocks of Oats on fams were not as large as had been generally believed. After opening IS cent off to 3-S cents up, with July 6S IS cent to 6S l-4 cent the market hardened to ma terial extent, and then reacted some what.
