CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS
Prospects Of = Decline In Receipts Causes
Corn Prices In Advance.

Chicago. April 22,---Corn developed consd-
cradle strength today, largely as result
Of increasing belief that receipts would fall
off to a material extent from now on.
The market closed firm at s1s7G1s7h,
May. and sl,47h to s1.%7h. July, with the
finish as a whole ranging from q shade off
to 1Nc net advance. Oats closed un-
changed to 80 higher and provisions down
Is to Is cents.
Renewal talk about the prospective dim
inished arrivals led to free covering by
shorts in corn, chiefly during the last half
OF the session, In the first part of the day
the market was unsettled. and bears had
the advantage good share Of the time
owing to the fact that contrary to expec-
tation receipts were fairly liberal and that
the weather here had turned fine. Bears.
however, were disappointed at the visible
supply statement which showed decrease
Of 1O1 900 bushels for the week. Then
came renewal forecasts that the movement
from the country would abate. Snbse-
quent changes in price were nearly all up
grade.
Fresh demand from the seaboard gave
strength to oats Excellent crop conditions,
though, made the July delivery inclined to
drag.
Provisions sagged owing TO packers un-
loading and to drop in the value OF hogs.
