Oats show a gain of c and provisions pro-visions 0G15c. jw , From the start growing weather in America and weakness in foreign markets mar-kets had a depressing lnfluenco on wheat, the July option opening a shade to Vm ate lower at 6C&c During tho first half-hour a llttlo firmer sentiment was manifested, the tono of tho market bo-lng bo-lng strengthened by a reported settlement settle-ment of tho 10-31010 strlka at Buffalo. Small primary recclptH In the Southwest also tended to encourage bull traders. Tho demand, however, was not sufficient to cause any considerable advance, ad-vance, tho high point on July being reached at SOTJc. Numerous bearish crop reports wero received from tho Southwest, South-west, and, being accompanied by selling sell-ing orders from St Louis houses, tho result was a gradual weakening of values A feature of trading was the wldo fluctuations fluc-tuations of tho May delivery, tho prlco of that option suddenly Jumping from 93 lo 9So and then as quickly reacting to ?4c Inasmuch as the short Interest in tho month is apparently Inconsequential 111 amount, no particular significance was attached to this sharp advance nnd subsequent sub-sequent decline. Transactions In all deliveries de-liveries wero so light that tho market was easily affected either way. Aftor selling down to 85c July closed at tec May ranged between 94o and 93c, closing clos-ing at 93c On a fair demand from a largo provision pro-vision Interest, a firm tono prevailed In corn. The market closed near tho high point of tho day. July closed up -C-Vic at 47T.c. In sympathy with other grains, oats showed an catdcr tendency early In tho session, but a fair demand from shorts soon caiiBcd a firm undertone. July closed up c at 38c A largo run of hogs with lower prices at tho yards caused some weakness at tho start, but enormous shlpmonls brought out a good demand from shorts.
