Chicago, July 2S--Absenee of sell
ing pressure allowed the wheat mar
ket to rally smeowhat today from
the severe breaks of yesterday and
the day before. Demand, however,
was light. Opening prices, which rang
ed from 21s to 6 cents lighter, with
December $2,38 to $2,41 and March
S2,40 to $2,42 were followed by
moderate general reaction.
Liquidation in corn as well as in
wheat seemed today to have deached
an end for the time being. After
opening at 1 "a off to 2A advance,
including September $1,39 "a to
$1,41 and December $1,24h to SLIPS
", the market ascended all around
and then steadied at about one cent
over yesterdays finish.
Oats opened 1-S to 1-8s higher,
hardened alittle more and then tend
ed to sag. *
Provisions reflected an upturn in
value of hogs
