CHICAGO, Apfil 8—Wheat prices tinued their record-breaking advance on ithe Board of Trade today, the May delivery soaring to §1.26% and the July to $11:%@ 1.12% per bu. The advance, however, was not maintained, the market cloaing irregu- lar, with prices %c lower to 1%4c higher, compared with yesterday's final quotations Gorn and oats closed weak and provisions rm. There was no such strain in the wheat trade today as noted on the previous ses- sion, but at times, however, the market displayed considerable activity. Instead of an upward jump of a cent or two on In- itial transactions, there was a calmer feel- ing today and the market showed some wigns of a reaction from the extreme buoy- ancy of the last few days. Opening prices were a shade to %c below the final fig- ures of yesterday, May being at $1.2561.25\, and July at $1.11%@1.11%. Early trading was of an ordinary character and prices worked a trifle lower owing to quite general sell- ing and absence of any substantial sup- port. The big volume of business was in the July delivery, which I8 now regarded by many as an old orop month. After May had sold off to $1.24% and July to $1.11%, sentiment suddenly became bullish again. Within the space of three minutes July had advanced to $LIZ%@1.12% and May to $1.26%, The upturn was partly due to a prediction made by the leading bull that this country will not raise 400,000,000 hush els of winter wheat this season. The buy- Ing furore subsided as quickly as it had develoj and prices soon reacted again on realizing sales. Distant deliveries, how- ever, were relatively much stronger than the May or July optlons and showed only slight declines from the extreme high points. The arket closed somewhat un- settied, the May and July deliveries being lower and September and December higher, compared with the previous close. Finai quotations on May were $1.24%. July closed at $1.1%@1LUN. Sharp declines occurred in corn prices owing to heavy realizing sales, particularly of the July delivery. One leading concern is said to have sold more than 1,000,000 bu of that option during the day. 'Mav sold bhetween and 67, and July between e and . The close was weak, with May off %e. at 66%c, and July was down Safie, at 8%c. Oats experienced a further break in prices, chiefly in sympathy with the slump _in corn. At the close prices were unchanged to %¢ lower, compared with the previous close. Final quotations on May were at 54%c, and on July at 4T%c. Provisions developed considerable.’ tirm- ness after an easy start. Prices at the close were a shade to l0c higher. The Board of Trade will be closed tomor- row.

Bome others have not appeared on the tape at all for days or weeks past. Onea of the day's news reports was that the Hughes commis- sion to investigate exchanges had com- pleted it report and that no recommenda- tion of legislation to restrict trading in stock exchangs would be included. Whether the unostentatious appearance of the an- nouncement and the astonlshing variety of the day’s movement in obscure and pooled stocks had any connection may afford an interesting subject for conjesture. It was the subject of remark during the sessions of the commission that pool activities were under discreot restraint and sensational price movements whre a rarity. The sub- stantial body of the stock list was quies- cent today, but firm. Rach ebullition like that of today is accepted usually as a sign of degeneration in the speculation and a harbinger of the end of a movement. The market showed its recent disposition to ignore bad signs, however, and there was no urgent pressure to get out of stock- holdings over the holl interval. The stock market kept one eys on the wheat market and saw evidence there to confirm the belief that the government crop report did not_promise well for the winter wheat crop. The reassembling of the conference between the anthracite operators and the representatives of the mincrs were hope- tully regarded as promising a settlemcnt The coalers continued to benefit from this the in of the currency movement indicated that the money supplies would be Increased by the time stock market op- erations are resumed on Monday next. Re- ceipts on balance from the interior thus far this week are reported to have reached s large an amount as the total from that ource for all of last weck. Money there- fore, continuing exceedingly easy. Dis- counts declined in tone, but rose in Paris and the London exchange at Paris aleo declined. Taken in_connection with any further advance in Steriing exchange here, this might lead to_resumption of gold ex- ports from New York to Paris. Such a prospect ‘would be viewed ~with _entire equanimity by the New York financial world. A good deal of encouragement is felt over the marked improvement in the government finances, largely by reason of the expansion in customs receipts. The United Btates treasury, in consequence finds Itself with such resources that an carly issue of government bonds 18 con- sidered to be an uniikely necessity. The profit-taking sales at the end of the day subtracted about as much from prices of the principal stocks as had been added by the advance, leaving the only notable change of the day in the class of stock, which made the feature of the day.

Although there were quite a number of good heavy beeves on sale, the market was so dull that it wi well along towards midday before anything like a clearance was effected. There was no very great change in the market on cows and helfers, still what change there was was on the of easter values. To call the market steady to & little lower would best describe the situs tion, Btockers and feeders seemed to be pretty good demand, at least, the d kinds.

Still a few loads changed hands here and there wherever a salesman thought that he was bid about steady prices. When the trade became general the market was really not very much dif- ferent from yesterday, at the most only a shade lower on an average. As a matter of fact, there were here and there loads that looked fully 6c lower, but to offset them there were others that were fully ady. The market was at no time very active, but still by 11 o' clock in the morn- ing pretty much everything had changea hands. The big bulk of the hogs sold at $6.50@7.00, and cn up as high as $7.16 for the best heavy. SHEEP-Lambs commanded about steady prices this morning, but (he trade was slow and dull and it was very apparent | that buyers were indifferent. "Still they evidently wanted a few good killers and, as the recelpts were not excessive, the more desiralle of the offerings changed hands in fair season. Cholce Colorado lambs sold up as high as $8.00, and some of the same Mexicans that brought $5.00 a week ugo sold at §7.90 today. The sheep market was not as the lamb market, for, while lambs were slow, they were about stea On the other hand, sheep were slow and in a good as much as 10c lower.
