GRAIN

CHICAGO, June S.-Wheat developed a
little firmness today as result of appre-
heusion on the part of some traders that
rains reported in the southwest would tend
to spoil harvest. Opening quotations, which
varied from unchanged figures to &c low
err, were followed by moderate gains all
around, and then something of a reaction.
Wheat closed firm at the same yeSter-
dFy's finish to 2Mc higher.
Corn hardened with wheat. After open
ing 1sc to 12c lower, the market rallied
to the same as yesterdays finish.
Germ closed easy, sc to.l1 net lower;
grains
Higher quotations on hogs gave lift to
provisions.
