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.

Among the speculative issues, Colorado

Buying of he stock Is based on a capi
