CHIPAGO , April 11. Wheat was weak nt
tJio start today nnd stront ; nt the finish ,
closing with n HO nilvniiee. A good export
business vvas responsible ror the rally.
Corn and o.its trailed along tiftur vvhput ,
lint'did not have MJ milch vltnllty , oats
closing unchanged nnil corn a shade lower.
Provisions declined 2V4 s to lOc.
Wheat speculators were rather afn loss
which vvny to turn nt the opcnliiK today.
JUijht nt the start the tone was llrm nnd
nome of the early trnnnactionB were nt the
close last night , the strength bclns elue to
tins unexpected uctlon of the Liverpool
market , vvlileh was Hd to "id higher , not-
\vlthstnnilliis the ill op of lie hero yesterday.
This brought n momentnry rush of buying
orders nnd for n short time the feeling
seemed llrm. Hut the ttanc soon began to
suspect manipulation abroad , and the buy
ers trot more cautious ! then cnme rumors
of the failure of Unrnoy Unrnato , the great
Knlllr stoelc operator ot London nnd South
Africa , nnd In anticipation of n possible
business panic nl road the wptculatlvo fccl-
InK1 turned bearish. The reiiorted fnllure1 ,
liowover vvns not confirmed. 1'e-ilmps the
lirlnclpil bcnr factor was the fnlr weather
xvest. IlcpoitB of rain day by day have
llimlly made even Pome of the beats appre
hensive , nnd when nt last thu sun did break
through tin * clouds It gave the bears re
newed louniRcd. St. Louis vvns n heavy
Heller In this market. Northwestern ro-
ceItits were much lighter , Minneapolis nnd
Dultith getting 2M cnlloails , ngalnst rtH the
dny before , 241 u week ngo nnd 319 the cor
responding il.iy of la t jenr. Liverpool
opened at from 'id to % d per cental higher.
rl ho export budm-ps which New York con
firmed as having done yesteiday amounted
to 400,000 bu. , nril within nn hour nfter the
iK'pJnnlng of loilij's nesston fifteen , boat
loads of fresh business were tepoite < l. Dn-
Itith advised Bales mndo there , jcsterday of
1.150r < H bu nnd of eight boatloads more to
day. Wheat , which clo > ed jestcrelay at C7 %
fim'Ac ' , opened with nellcrnnd sales nt
from CiWO ? , and In the course of half
nn hour the price had receded to OC QCGTSc ,
It started upward from the latter point ,
nnd tlnough much opposition It forced Its
way u very little at a time until It pot
to GS'ic Just at the close. July kept about
& 0 discount under May until near the end ,
when It dropped ' { .o below It.
The Impiovement In the weather started
corn weak , and the mnrket remained In
that eondltlon all morning. An Improve
ment stnrte'd on the small estimated re
ceipts for tomorrow , the rally being helped
by the latest stieng-th of wheat und nearly
nil the early loss was recovered. Kxpott
clearances were reported nt 411,000 bu. May
started unchanged nt 23iifT2J'4c , dropped to
2T4C and rallied to 2.TV1C. where It closed.
Oats started wcnlc on the cle.ir weather ,
which was assisted by n disposition among
shorts to sell. Later on In the dny sym-
pithy with wheat and better bujtng gener
ally caused a reaction , and at the close
values were Just where they started A
peed business was trans.tcted. Exports
amounted to "O.fOO bu. May opened a shade
lower at lGfj.lG'/c , declined to IGV&c and
closed nt IG' c bid.
Provisions were dull nnd easier , with busi
ness confined to local traders. Tlio opening
was lower on the weak hog market , nnd
further declines ensued. Some rally oc
curred late In the day In njmp-uhy with
the gialn markets At the close May pork
was lOc lower nt $ S27' . ; May lard 5c lower
at $1 IVfN.U'i , nnd May ribs a shade lower

The Evening Post's Ix > ndon financial cnblp-
Kinm SKJS : "The market , though uncertain nnd
IrrcgulHi today , wns better on the whole nnd
the exchange decided lo close on Saturday next.
C'onscU nnd home rails had the best market.
There wns a distinct rise In Amerlcnni. New
York Centrals were Ihe feature nnd were bought
by Now York principally. Detnlln of the fund-
Inn scheme nre expected tomorrow. Those who
took a hopeful view of Americans believe that
the time In coming when those funding schemes
will be properly appreciated nnd will be the
occasion of a sharp stimulus to nfTalrs. Kaf
firs have lost on forced sales , but the close was
materially better and firmer showed a better
tone , Torclgncrs were dull , tha feature being a
sharp fail In Urazlls Gold wa * < In strong de

Japan and r,0tOO for Austria. The 1'arlB nnd
