CHICAGO tiKAW ASO PRUV1SIU.XS
Feat a res of the Trading and Closing
Prices oa Board of Trade.
, ' CHICAGO. April 1.-A large part of the
loss sustained on the severe slump In wheat
prices yesterday wss regained today, and
tnt market closed strong, with prices (0
V lower to Mi'Hc higher, compared with
the previous close. Corn and oats displayed
unusual strength, the May delivery of the
former touching a new high point for the
season. Provisions also closed firm.
The wheat market was an extremely
choppy affair during the early part of the
session, but during the final hour senti
ment crystallised Into decided bullishness,
brought about chiefly by heavy purchases
of the July option. Trade in the May de
livery waa brisk at the outset, longs being
free- sellers. Later, however, this option
was neglected In favor of the more deferred
futures. Pit sentiment today was
created principally by foreign ad
vices. Official statistics Indicated that
the wheat movement this week from Ar
gentina and Australia was at low ebb
the exports from the former country being
-,344.000 bushels, compared with IJiS.OW
bushels the corresponding time a year ago.
This was generally considered a sure Indl
cstlori that weekly statistics next Monday
would reveal a marked falling off In the
world's movement and In the amount on
passage. A message from Duluth claming
that the break In prices yesterday at Win
nipeg had resulted In axles there of thirty
two boatloads of Manitoba wheat for ex
port, slso Inspired additional bullish feel
ing. 8alcs of cash wheat here were limited,
but the southwest reported continued de
mand, with prices about at the high point
of the year. After pursuing an uneventful
course, compared with the turbulent scenes
of the previous session, the market broke
sharply toward the end of the first hour
on liberal profit-taking In Mav. The price
of that option dropped from 1.27Hto 11.251i
in a short space of time, while Julv sold
off more than lc, declining from 11.1674, to
Jl.liS. Leading bulla promptly came to the
suj.port of the July option and the price
of thnt month quickly raollled, but the
May delivery was less buoyant. The top
rr July wis resched at 1.17. Closing
trades on that month were made at 11.17.
k title May finished at 11.27V September
so id between !l.(Kit$1.07. and closed at
11.07 4.
Corn regained all of the loss sustained
In the slump of the previous session and
the May delivery advanced to a new high
point for the crop, sales being made st
t9H. During the day. May sold be
tween 8SIc and closed at 69fcti8ttc. a
gain of compared with the previ
ous close.
The feature of trade In the oats market
was active buying of the September de
livery, based on delay to seeding by wet
weather. That option showed a net gain
for the day of lSo. The market, in general,
wss strong all day. .
Buying of a large quantity of lard and
ribs by an Influential local packer, caused
moderate strength In provisions. The up
turn In the price of coarse grain also had
a bullish effect. At the close prices were
unchanged to 7c higher.
The leading futures ranged as follows:

CATTIjB Receipts of cattle this morning
were extremely light, there not being
enough of any kind to make a real test of
the market. In fact, there were only a few
scattering loads ofered for sale. What few
there were changed hands In good sesson in
the morning at prices nominally steady
with yesterday.
To quote the market on beef steers todsy
as steady with yesterday means that the
market is really around 26c lower than it
waa a week ago, some classes showing
more loss perhaps than that and others not
quite so much.
Cows snd heifers, while stesdy with yes
terday, are 15f(f20o lower than last week.
The very best fat cows and heifers have
not shown as much decline as some grades
while stock cows snd heifers, that Is. any
thing thst would do for feeder buyers
have commanded about steady prices owing
,h vfy 1 demand for thst class.
The kind that has suffered most are such
i?S;; ,and h"f'"S ss were selling at about
14.76(86.00. This kind of stuff Is In many
cases 26c lower than last week.
As noted yesterday, so few feeders have
been received this week that fully stead'
prices have been maintained In spite of
the bre-'ik on fat cattle. Tha week closes
with everything cleaned up.

SHEEP Receipts were verv hmllrl fhi
morning, numbering only six cars. While
there were not enough supplies to make a
market, everything ass cleaned up at ths
opening at prices steady with v.ii,.m.
quality considered. Ewes of a pretty rood
kind moved at $6.00 and western lambs
were good enough to sell at 17.76. For .
past couple days shorn supplies have been
urn a on tae rnaraet. This mnrn ne .
couple loads of shorn ewes and two cars
of hold over clipped lambs met with ready
sales at $4.10 and $6.25. respectively.
uwing to light receipts, buvlns: tnlnnt
generally held quality as a secondary con
sideration, and for the first time this week
tha receipt platter was llteiallv llrke.1
clean.
The market this week has not been In
ths best of condition, looking st It from a
seller's standpoint. Kxceptlng Monday and
yesterday, when trsde took on a healthier
tone, ths general market has favored tha
packers. Heavy receipts snd bearish sen
timent, csused by unfavorable eastern ad
vices, were largely responsible for slow
movement In supplies and sllghtlv lower
values. Howeer. a dime would fully
cover the decline on all grudes during ths
week.
Quotations on sheen and iambs: Oood to

to get stesdy prices and wnen it tonic .
good deal of work to get buyers up to the
steady point. On some kinds rf hogs It
seemed Impossible to bring that about and
quite a number sold, as noted above, 6c
lower. There was quite a little uneven

parently a httie belter In one division than
in the other. After It wa sll over with
It looked ss If the greater part of the rte
sirable hogs hsd brought stead v (r almost
stesdy prices. Thus a ranslderable pro
