GRAIN MARKET

CHICAGO, April % (P).-Efforts to-
settle May accounts beforehand hoisted
nearby deliveries of wheat and rye
today to the highest prices touched in
many weeks The wheat market as
whole closed firm, y to Pa cents net
higher; corn Y to 7s cent up; oats
showing Is cent to Is cent gain, and
provisions at a shade to 25 cents ad-
vance.
Wheat finished at practically the
days top level with most traders en-
deavoring to get clear of May con-
tracts and thus avoid any possible sur
prise developments of Monday, when
first deliveries for May are due.
Accelerating the consequent upward
trend of prices was the fact that export
today for North American wheat con-
tinued good with sales estimated as
high as 100000 bushels. Besides, ad-
vices were current that ocean charter
for upward of 100000 bushels of
grain had been made since Monday and
that export clearances from North
America during the next two months
would be very large.
Except on the bulges and to collect
a profit, speculative offerings of
wheat today were of relatively limited
volume. Among the reasons given was
further delay to seeding of the spring
crop. One Chicago observer telegraphed
from Regina, Sask., telling of many
thousands of acres so wet that they
will not dry out in time to be seeded
to wheat. There was also mention of
widening damage by Hessian fly in
Oklahoma. Meanwhile decided sgnifi-
canoe in some quarters was attached
to an advance in cash premiums for
red wheat and to indications that such
wheat delivered here on May contracts
would be promptly shipped out.
Corn and oats closed fairly strong,
with no evidence of any usual selling
pressure on the nearby delivery. Heavy
rains in the central west were a bullish
factor. Export business in oats was
again in evidence, with export bids on
corn at u cent from a working basis.
Provisions We're responsive to firm
ness both of hog values and of grain.
