Exports Of each key commodity
during May showed Improvement
over the figures for April. The
shipments of coal amounting 10
5.057.o0e tons show an increase of
$1,000 tons over the figures for the
preceding month. A decrease In
the export price for iron and steel
is to be noted from a comparison
OF the quantity and value figures
for the months of April and May.
During the former month $4,000
tons were valued at fl,9s4. 900,
whereas during May 273.O00 tons
were valued at "a. .s31 600, which In
dictates approximately an per cent
decrease. Like decreases are evil
dent In the export valuations for
cotton goods and wooden and
worsted tissues. These are ap-
proximately 3 per cent and per

WHEAT SENTIMENT
BECOMES BEARISH
Commission Houses Head
Selling on Better Weather
Conditions.

CHICAGO, June 24.-Reports OF
rains in parts of Nebraska and Iowa
caused a weak opening in the wheat
market with prices off over 1 cent
from yesterdays finish at the inside
figures early. There was general
local and commission house sellins
on the better weather conditions, al
though IL was believed that winter
wheat would be little benefited ex-
cept in the very late grain. A big
storm was reported in the Canadian
Northwest with heavy losses OF
property and crops in some sections.
Local sentiment generally has be-
come rather bearish on account Of
the good advance of late. There was
a widening in the July-September
difference today to around IL cents
discount for the former. Country
offerings to arrive were not large
and in the Springfieid-lllinois ter
ritory bids Of 81 per bushel at
leading stations so far have failed
to bring out much grain.

Export demand slow with cables
from the United Kingdom Showing &
an easy understone. Forecast was
for generally fair weather over
Sunday with lower temperatures.
Coarse Grains.
The rain reports tend to general
selling of corn and oats with corn

after the opening. Support was
lacking for a time and while there
was a fair rally pressure increased
on all the upturns and corn gen

that grain showed relatively more
strength than corn. A very good
export business was put through in
corn at the seaboard over night.
