IMPROVED OUTLOOK
HALTS RISE IN WHEAT
Pause in European Buying Adds to
Depression-Weekly Review
of Grains.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, May 31.-Improvement
of the crop outlook southwest and
west, together with a pause in Euro
pean buying, has put a curb this week
on the upward tendency of the wheat
market here. Largely as a result,
wheat this morning stood exactly the
same as week ago to % higher,
with corn ranging from decline to to
12aS advance, oats at e OF to u
up, and provisions at 12a15 lower to
gain.
1t was only after widespread per-
sistent rains benefiting crops in
Kansas, Oklahoma and Nebraska that
the slant toward higher prices for
wheat showed noticeable change
and that evidence of big European
buying of Canadian wheat began to
abate Meanwhile, close adjustment
of values between Winnipeg and chi
cago made the prospect for export
come better than for months past: At
this juncture, however, complaints
that the domestic crop was going
backward were left out, and atten-
ton was shifted good deal to
month-end settlement of accounts.
Wheat selling in Chicago against
buying in Liverpool, as well as the
reverse operation. attained consider
able volume at times, mainly Chicago
September delivery and Liverpool
October. Opinions about Likelihood OF
lessened production of wheat TINS
year the world over were a factor in
such trading On the other hand. new
crop hedging sales here were light,
cash interests holding off while
Washington uncertainty as to farm
legislation continued.
Corn and oats as we'll as wneat were
cbiefiv ruled by the variable weather
and by month-end evening-up OF
trades.
Eniarging stocks Of lard acted as
weight on the provision market.
