ToDAY,s CHICAGO PRICES.
! CHICAGO. June with crop con-
| ditions generally auspicious Tor
growth, the wheat market under
! early dealings. Lower quotations at
i Liverpool acted as a. contributing 3
! tearish factor. On the other hand,
although announcement that commits
Secretary of Agriculture accounts
| long or. short 100000 bushels or
more, was construed in some quar-
| ters as implying that accounts of
less than 100000 bushels are. too
| small to be objectionable, such views
failed. apparently. to have any
! lulfish result. Opening prices, which
| varied from unchanged figures to
| haIf cent lower, with July 1.13h to
i13H and September 1.1s to 1.1SA:
were followed by a decided drop all
| around.
Corn and oats were easier with
wheat. After opening unchanged,
July 7sA to 7s&. the corn market
suffered a moderate general down.
Oats started unchanged to Is off.
