STRONGER TONE
Shorts in Wheat Cover on
Frost Reports From
Kansas.
BY HAROLD E. RAINyILLE
United Press stan Correspondent

CHICAGO, May 22.-Wheat was
unsettled on the Board OF Trade
today rallying sharply to close with
good rains on short covering when
Winnipeg made an abrupt recovery.
The northern market did not hold
its gains, but held around the pre-
vious close. After shorts had
bought wheat early on the frost
reports from Kansas, there was
reaction on the weakness in corn.
the latter grain sinking TO new
lows for all months except May.
Persistent local selling dropped
corn into new ground and while
there was strong rally at the last.
the market did not fully regain its
losses, except for December. Oats
were dull, but resisted pressure and
acted somewhat independent to
close firm.
Wheat Closes Up
AT the close wheat was 4 to y
cent higher with May Il cent lower;
corn was L cent lower to Is cent
higher, and oats we're unchanged to
Is cent higher. Provisions were
around IS points lower.
Liverpool was weak, largely on
selling in the way of evening up for
the two-day holiday, and closed n
to Is cent lower. Canadian rain
reports still emphasize the lack Of
moisture and the lightness of the
recent rains. Both sections Of the
northwest were without precipita-
ton Thursday night. Cash prices
were unchanged to 4 cent higher.
Receipts we're lot cars.
UndertOne Is Heavy
Corn was off fractionaIy at the
start. The cold weather in the
southwest was against field work
and growth, but conditions in the
main corn belt were favorable and
the market eaSed despite the stead
mess in wheat. Prices were off
Il to II cent at mid-seSsion. The
undertone was heavy but trading
quiet. Cash prices we're Il to III
cents lower. Receipts were 81 cars.

NEW YORK, May ga moder-
ate rally near the close today lifted
the stock market slightly above the
previous closing levels after the list
had drifted irregularly lower
through much Of the session. Gains
in most instances were only frac.
tional.
Trading during much of the ses-
sion represented evening up opera
ton following the heavy wave 0.
short covering in the preceding
session. Further weak spots de.
veloped but they were confined tx
a few individual issues. Movements
we're exceedingly narrow and re-
flected absence Of speculative par
ticipation in the market.
With the exception of a brief
period Of strength in the initial
trading, when dealings we're swelled
by an overnight accumulation of
buying orders, there was little fea-
ture to the market. Trading ac-
tivity dwindled as the session pro-
gress and most traders withdrew
from the market pending the abil-
ity OF the market to hold its recent
gain.
Close Is Steady
Steel common, American Can,
General Electric, General Motors
and other leaders finished at or
slightly above previous closing
levels after moving within a mar
row range. Similar advances took
place in the rails. Outstanding
strength in issues like Woolworth,
Auburn and Servel was somewhat
offset by weakness in other sections,
principally in the chemical issues.
Early easiness was attributed tc
bear operations based on the steel
price situation as disclosed by James
A. Farrell, president of the United
States Steel Corporation at the
meeting of the American Iron and
Steel institute. Selling also was oc-
casioned by the remarks of Eugene
G. Grace, president of the Beth
lehem Steel Corporation, that bust
ness showed no improvement.
Weakness Ignored
Effects of these statements, how
ever, gradually lost their force as
the session progressed and weakness
in individual shares was largely
ignored by the main body of stocks.
This encouraged pool operations in
several individual issues, which
scored good gains.
Traders continued to discuss the
possibilities of the effect of pros
pective higher railroad freight rates
on railroad shares. This led to con-
tinued flrmneSs in shares of this
class under the leadership of New
York Central, which rose nearly 2
points at one time. Other rails were
relatively quiet.
According to preliminary calcula-
tions, the Dow, Jones e. Co. indus
trial average declined O5 points t
139.49; rail average advanced 6G
point to 1894.
Sales totaled 100000 shares
compared with 100000 shares
Thursday.
