Foreign Market Strength Helps Vi heat to Climb L{tck of Pressure Throughout Session—Elevator Inter ests Continue Absorp tion of July Crain. I ni versa! Service Stuff Correspondent. Chicago. May 6.—Strength in foreign y at Liverpool and Winnipej helped loi al w heat price* upward today. Trade was mediocre and price awing* narrow, but there was a lack of pressure throughout the session. The feature wan the continued absorption of July wheat by elevator inlere*t* who were credited with selling the Winnipeg July at 2%' difference. Wheat closer! % to Sr higher; corp was unchanged to %o lower; oa'a were %’ lower to %c higher, and rye ruled % c advanced The world wheat situation in the minds of many grain men is steadily improving. In fact there ia distinct change in senti ment in grain circle* regarding the chance for higher values. The main trouble at the moment ts fear of inter ference by the government. Export trade was fair, the seaboard confirming sales of 300,000 to 400,000 bushels Manitoba* Corn has been a pepless affair for sev eral days. There is nothing particular lv new in the situation, and the pit con tinues to go along with the indifferent cash demand. Receipts hero today were lighter than expected, but premiums were off 4c. at the 'lose. Tile movement of '■'*rn at this time is Considerably In e\ cess of h year ago. May oats displayed firmness, this grain closing Irregularly. An active shipping demand with charters made for moving east of tiii.s grain attracted scattered commission house support Trade in rye was exceedingly dull and Price* firm at the close with wheat. Provisions aie generally firm. Lard was 24 ty 5c high*/, and ribs were 74v up. Pit Noted. 1 lie grain trade was Informed today by recognized authority that Europe will need liberal supplies of imported wheat before another harvest (Tops through the continent are backward and while prospects for them are not especially bad. ■ till they undoubtedly will be if weather conditions do not improve. The very fact1 that a late season abroad lends to t lie prediction that large supplies must he taken In reflects the idea that stock* abroad must be low. Cold and rainy weather over parts of Canada continue to delay seeding opera H"n*. A reduction of i:> per rent in ’he acreage to he sown in Saskatchewan wa* forecasted today. With acreage lowered throughout the prairie province* and with the chances slim that Canada again will experience the phenomenal weather of last year for crop raising, it looks a* though production in that country this season will be much lower. Winter wheat prospect* *re flatteringly maintained Very optimistic messages w-pre received from parts of the south-! '•est today, while complaint* east of the M’ssistlppi are less frequent In the American northwest scattered rainfall was experienced, which should prove ben eficial. Surplus stock* of wheat 1n all coun ts**- save the Argentine where a dock •trike at the moment is checking ship ment!, appear to be moving out into con sumptive channels appreciably fast For two weeks the Canadian visible supply decreased over 20,000,000 bushel*, quite an amount. In this country th>ie has been a much greater decrease from week to week compared with a year ago, do •spitH relatively large supplies which would ordinarily suggest a less anxious demand. World shipments ate heavy, but Europe continues to buy. The world price of wheat must be considered low bv foreign buyers. or else they have o>eratayed their market. CHICAGO ' vsn PRICES.
