The close was unsettled at the same as yester- 12.— day’s finish to %c lower, with May $1.44% to $1.45 and July $1.26% to 126%. In the later dealings the market dropped to $1.44%c for May. Talk of largo export business aided a rally, however, just before the close. CHICAGO, May 12.—Ageresstve ac- tion on the part of bulls forced a new uptourn in wheat prices today during the early dealings. Brokers identified with the leading interests on the bull side bought 100,000 bushels. the moment the market opened and other liberal orders to purchase were also quickly filled. Meanwhile, how- ever, the opposing element had de- Itvered more than half a milton bush- els or may contracts and today’s re- cetpts here were announced as amount- ing to 240 carioads, the generous total under such cireumstances, the up- ward swing of the mnrket was svon checked and something of a reaction ensued. The opening which varied from unchanged figures to % higher with May $1.45 to $1.45% and July $1.26% to $1.27% was followed by a rise of 1%c for May and with lesser gains for July and September. Corn and oats were firmer with wheat. After opening a shade to \% @ % higher with July 65%c to 65%c, the corn market sagged a trifle but then scored slight general gains. Slowness of domestic shipping de mand had a depressing influence later. The close was weak, % to % to %c net lower, with July 64% @¢4%c. Oats started unchanged to higher, with July 40%c and went a little higher all around. Provisions responded a little to the upward tende of grain, Closing Quotations.
