Chicago Grain
By CHARLES D. MICHAELS.
Chicago Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased Wire.
Chicago, April 7.Traders were
all set for a break in grains and se
cured it for a time. Most of the
selling came from the shorts and
from scattered longs and was well
absorbed by profit-taking shorts and
commission houses on the decline.
In the late trading- buying by
most of the early selling carried
prices up and the close was at neaj-ly
the highest prices. Net gains were
IMi to 2c on corn. ' to ljicin oats,
V, to 011 rye and a loss of ylc
on barley.
Provisions were weaker and with
pork off 5 to 15c, lard 2yc to 15c,
and short ribs 75-ic.
Professionals Turn Bears.
Many of tha leading local professionals,
who were vory bullish on corn when .May
win around 31-25. have taken the bear
aide on tha hellof that a good reaction
was overdue, and that tha technical posi
tion of the market waa weak. At no time,
however, were futures more than frac
tionally below the previous day's finish,
and the close was wall toward tha top.
With the railroad situation demoralized
and prospects that the , strike would
spread, thera is a decided disposition to
go slow on either side until the atmos-1-iicra
olenrs. Price fluctuations were ve-y
Kharp. covering a ranifa of aiSJc.
The buying of several hundred thousand
bushels of corn for Kansas City firm
thst failed had considerable to do with
n.aktng tha final rally.
Wheat Pricea Factors.
Talk, of bid export sales of cash wheat
at the aeahourd to the British and French
governments, with claims of Immense
amount of ryo wanted. France bidding
32.10 per bushel at Baltimore, with a
good dontand for earn products from the
I'nlted Kingdom; were factors that kept
pressure off the market.
Outs made their highest prices nt the
start and again at the close, finishing nt
the top. There was a noticeable lack of
pressure when local shorts tried to cover,
while the buying the greater part of the
day was of good class. Sample values
ui'rhanged to lc lower, with receipts 13
c rs.
Huylng of rye was nf an excellent class,
hru:ses with seaboard connections being
active on that aide. Ko. 2 on track
hienuht 81.87 Vi.
Barley strong, but the only sale waa a
car at $1.07. Movement limited on ac
count of strike.

Snow began falling with a high wind on
the morning of Saturday, the 3d, and con
tinued for more than 24 hours. In the

from an Inch to a foot, and In the north
central portion the" snow melted readily
under splendid sunshine on Monday, as
Its moisture contentranges from V4-lnch
to 1 Inch of water. The western counties
were not so well favored, as the snowfall
was lighter. It was a banner week for
tho wheat in tha north' central and east
ern counties, as the moisture from the
snow was needed. Wheat in that section
was stoollng and had greened up before
the snow fell. More moisture is needed
In the western third of the state, the
