CHICAGO. April S. Weather conditions were tho chief consideration with wheat traders. With storms In tho West, Northwest North-west nnd Central valleys, apprehension was rife concerning farming operations. Apparently tho fact that moisture was greatly needed did not appeal to tho majority ma-jority of traders. The market opened firm, with July n shado to 14c higher, at S7ffS71ic to S71ic Cables, however, were weak, and it was not lone beforo sentiment seemed to change In regard to the weather. AVhat was accorded a bull factor becamo a weakening lnlluer.ee. Some of tho big opcratora had wheat for .sale on tho Initial Ini-tial advance. It was principally long wheat, and the selling was done seemingly under tho impression that tho situation warranted ji decline. Crop reports from two prlvata authorities were- bearish, showing un improvement In tho condition of tho growing wheat. For a time thoro was qulto general selling, under the lnllu-enco lnllu-enco of which July located to SOliffSOij'gC. Later Jn the session tho market had a quick recovery. A cold wave was predicted predict-ed by tho weather bureau, and reports were received stating that tho tempera-turo tempera-turo had dropped below the freezing point In northern Kansas. Advices from tho Northwest were extremely bullish, and heavy snows were reported to havo fallen In tho Red River country. An ndvanco of l-Uc at Minneapolis helped to stlmulato tho demand for wheat here, unusual activity resulting during the last hour July sold up to SW4c and closed strong at 870S7?c, May ranged between 94-"fic and 9314c. and closed at 951sc Clearancos of wheat and Hour were equal to 101,9(0 bushels. Exports Ex-ports of wheat and flour for the week, ns reported by Bradstrect's, woro equal to 1,-854,400 1,-854,400 bushels. Prl-nary receipts were 359,-GOO 359,-GOO bushels, against a holiday last year. Minneapolis, Dululh and Chicago reported report-ed receipts of 241 cars, compared with holidays holi-days last week and a year ago. Unfavorablo weather for tho movement caused a firm opening In corn, but thcro was a strong disposition to sell at the Improved Im-proved prices, and with llttlo support the market soon weakened. July opened 'yfp ?ic higher, at 511451c After selling between be-tween 51c and 5214c, the close was at 5114 ff514C. May ranged between KffSuC and closed at 53?lc. Local receipts were 114 cars, with 3G of contract grade. Oats wore strong on local buying and on covering by shorts.
