THICAOO, May 9,-RaJn northwet, Where drought damage had been reported was the main cause of a sharp decline here today In the price of wheat. Suspicion that the holders of the May option quietly were getting rid of their burden, gave an added reason for the downturn. Latest figures were to le lower than 24 hour before. Other leading staples, too, all cloted at a losa. Com off Vk'tfUie to H6C oats WtfhtC to 14c and. provisions 6c to 10fi 12Hc. Throughout the aesslon support for wheat proved altogether inadequate, being of the scattered commission aort, and resting lurgely on scaled orders. If It had not been for a huge decrease appearing In the world a available supply total, the collapse of the market would no doubt have been more complete. The fac.4 that the govern ment report received a decidedly bearish Interpretation In foreign renters had com. paratlvely small Influence. There waa no sign of reaction at the close. July ranged from 8iii;T,c to 8fic with last sales lc net lower at 8Kc. Although shorts were moderate buyers of corn, that cereal eased off on account of the fine weather. July fluctuated between IV and Sl'sa:. closing weak, ,c down at SlVaolWc-. Cash grades were offered a little more freely. No. 2 yellow finished at Oats developed a heavy tone In avmpathy with corn and wheat. High and low points for July turned out to be 32'c and ilt3 81?c, with final transactions, 317c, at net lon of c. 1 1 With hog receipts heavy and a further increase looked for next week, provision dropped. In th end pork had lost a nickel to a dime, and there was a cheapen ing of 10c to lulWc In both lard and ribs. Iricts tn Chicago, furnished by th Up dike 'iratn company.
