DtlN,S REPORT

NEW YORK, May 1S-Dun's to-
morrow will say:
Phases which usually mark periods
of business expansion now stand out
more clearly. Recovery from pre-
vious depression, proceeding slowly
and irregularly for many months, is
steadily gathering momentum, and
sentiment rejects the changed condi-
tons. Different lines that had Jagged
while buyers waited are beginning
to display renewed activity as re-
vival of demand develops and a re-
versal of the price trend has been
witnessed Without exception each
week this month has disclosed an eN-
cess of advances in Dun's compre-
hensive list Of wholesale quotations
and premiums on prompt shipments
of certain commodities demonstrate
that some needs are becoming urgent
Conspicuous among the favorable
features is the decisive turn for the
better in the automobile industry
where sales and output have in
creased substantially and building
operations of magnitude have con-
tinued. With Improvement also oc-
curing in other leading branches of
business despite labor troubles. the
general outlook is distinctly of bright
er promise, although not without ele-
ments of Uncertainty. Weekly bank

weakness developed in the wheat
market today owing more or less to
announcement that the Kansas state
crop report indicated a larger yield
than of late had been looked for.
Prices closed unsettled. Is to Az cents
net lower, with May $1395s to $1.40
and July s1.24ss to $1.24A. Corn
finished unchanged to % cent down,
oats at 4 decline to u cent advance
and provisions varying from un-
changed figures to 10 cents off.
Heavy selling of the July delivery
of wheat came from the principal
long interest in May Most of the
activity showed itself in thetast hour
of the session. but had been preceded
by early selling on the part OF for
eign holders of September delivery.
Aside from 100000 bushels increased
estimates of the probable Kansas
Weld, the trade seemed to be inn
pressed with the liberal volume of
receipts at this time of the year and
with the absence of any important
export business. Todays arrivals
mere totalled 313 car loads and there
we're advices that St Louis alone was
loading 75 cars to ship for Chicago.
A year ago today the total receipts
of wheat in Chicago was 101 cars.
Tomorrow's receipts at Kansas City
were estimated at 200 cars and Mon
days at 500. During the last hour
of the borrd of trade session prices
crumbled rapidly in the wheat pit.
From the lowest point reached May
recovered about "a cents. but there
was little rallying power displayed by
the later months.
Corn and oats prices sympathized
little with the weakness of wheat,
although the greater part of the day
attention was chiefly given to re-
ports of wet weather hindrance to
corn planting.
Provision prices were inclined to
sag as a result of lower quotations
on hogs. A good cash demand for
meats, however, was reported.
