Winnipeg that with persistent rains IN
progress it is now too late for any fur-
ther wheat seeding. Official adVlces
we're also at hand that it has become
impossible for Kansas to realize har-
vest as large as was forecast on May /.
Sensationally unfavorable crop reports
from Texas and Oklahoma were ike
wise current, including word that the
wheat yield in the Texas panhandle
would be SO reduced there would be
none for export. On top OF all tins
were unexpected steep advances at
Liverpool and prospects of heavy cur
tailment of wheat and rye stocks here
this week. rendering month-end ao-
justment OF May contracts difficult.
Excited buying and topmost prices
of the day were the rule near the
finish in the wheat pit.
Torrential rains in the corn belt and
consequent serious further delays to
planting we're the principal stimulus to
higher prices for corn and oats.
Provisions averaged lower as a result
of packers selling, but this was partly
offset by relative cheapness OF lard
compared with other commodities.

NEW YORK, May "a R,-Selling
pressure was more pronounced in to-
days stock market, but spectators for
the advance successfully maintained
control of the price movement, lifting
nearly two score issues to new peak
prices. Frequent selling squalls swept
through the market, giving it the ap-
pearance of irregularity most OF the
time, but closing quotations disclosed
a rather long list OF net gains ranging
from | to 8 points and smaller num-
ber of rather substantial losses.
Railroad shares showed rather sur
prising strength in the face Of the

Railroad equipments were well sup-
ported on renewed talk of large car and
locomotive orders. Strength OF the
sugars probably reflected the reports
of Louisiana crop damage by the
Mississippi flood. Oils were III peGtee

commodity markets. May wheat closed
at 81 so a bushel. Cotton futures turned
reactionary, closing 13 to Is points net
lower on better weather reports from
Texas and a feeling Of uncertainty over
the Russo-BritiSh situation.
There were few movements OF lnteF-
est among the foreign exchanges. Ster-
ling was slightly firmer around

francs ruled around 3.915s cents. Dutch
