Some emphasis was added by small re- ceipts in the Northwest. The firmness in the foreign market was partly due to bad weather reports from Argentina, but a cablegram to a Chicago commiesion firm from Rosarlo said that the weather was improving and fhat lit- tle damage had been done to the wheat crop. At the same time the big bull interest here anifested a tendency to dispose of holdings. This fact exerted considerable influence upon small holders. As & -»cult of the combination of circumstances a good deal of long wheat came out and an easfer tone develoved, May selling off to 81%@S1%c, after opening a shade lower to a shade higher at 81%c to 81%c. The high point of the day was reached shortly after the opening, when May touched S1%c. The market held steady at the decline for a time and during the latter part of the session a better towe was manifested on reports of an active export business. The cash business showed marked improvement and this helped the speculative trade. The close was steady, | with May unchanged at S1K@S1ie. rn did not hold up as well as of late. 'l"he weather continued flne and reports from Nebraska said that farmers were disposed to sell their cash corn a little more freely. May closed K@Y lower at 43¢, After a steady opening oats eased off in s corn. May closed a shade lower at 36%c.

Los Angeles vegetables were in £00d request both for local use and shipping account, and there was a general advance in prices.

There is a rush to get out of storage goods, which lndl holders to cut quotations right IM left. A good deal of this storage Butter is being seld at cost and even under, and it is said that a large line will be carried The conditions in these storage goods are very different from those last year at this time, when cubes were so scarce that retailers were buying from each other to keep in stock. Briefly, the whole Butter market is depressed and in bad shape for sellers.
