CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET

Chicago, June S0.-Signs of liberal Ax- port business had a bullish effect on thA wheat market near the end of the session today despite strike talk and notwit3- standing better weather prospects. north west. The close was firm, quarter cent of l 1-4c net higher with July SPA 1-4c to SPA 1-2 and September $1. .23 1-4 to I24 1-2 and September SIPS 1-4 to Sl.25 3-4. Corn lost 1-2c to 1-2c and oats 1-2t to 1 1-Sc. In provisions the outcome varied from 1-2 decline to 10 cents advance.
 Weakness, which had prevailed in the wheat market until the fina hour, was based partly on action of grain elevator employees here in refusing to arbitrate wage troubles and partly on chances of cooler weather and rain northwest, where plight had been feared on account of continued heat. Declining prices, how ever were apparently taken advantage Of by foreigners, and it was said that sales to Europe totalled one million bushels. Moreover, Germany was said to be in the market with offers for three million bushels at ninety days credit. The fact that country offerings were rath- CT scarce tended also to strengthen tn. values in the late dealings. After senti- ment began to change in favor of the oulls' prices climbed steadily, and a. trader who was often conspicuous in pre- war times was freely mentioned as a buy CT on the upturn.

 He will t.1en hurry to the arena in order to be in the ring by 2.3o.
 Enjoying perfect peace in the a5sen co of visitors, Carpenter this afternoon spent three hours opening mail which in the last few days has accumulated to more than one thousand pieces. T'iere were presents and messages to good will from all corners of the universe. The most interesting of these was letter from French Indo-China. Evidently this was sent by youth who served with the French army during the war. The let ter itself no one in the camp could translate, but they did understand a car | toon that was enclosed. This depicted Carpenter standing on the chest of a vanquished opponent, and a figure in the corner gesticulating wildly and say | ing something in Chinese.
 | That's Descamps,' laughed Georges.
