CHICAGO, May 12.—A firm undertone, due to heavy rains and low temperdture in the | Northwest, prévalled in wheat at the opening | to-day. Initial sales of July were unchanged [ 10 a shade higher at 83%c to K34 @Ss%e. A that fire at Fort Willlam had de- brought raders: to out enough buying orders from pit advance the price to 85%c. Receipts were ex- tremely small and this fact also exerted a bullish influence. But trading in general was light. The market lacked any outside sup- port, and wita a continuance of offerings the price pradually weakened. A numbér of bear- | Ish reports were recelved during the day, in- creasing the weakness, Advices from Russia stated that the surplus of wheat for export was iUl large and that the weather was favorable for growing wheat. The condition of wheat flelds in the Southwest was reported to have shown considerable improvement, An influential selling motive was the lack of out- side demand, the supposition being that 1f 14 | there is Do foreign demands between now harvest. time stocks of wheat in Chicago wil show a big increase. The market closed weak, with July at Si%g84%c after the price had declined 1o 84%@84 Corn. was moderately strong on ts and on covering by shorts.

Potatoes, Onions and Vegetables. The Potato market is overloaded with old Potatoes and is decidedly weak. The daily re- ceipts of Oregon Burbanks are heavy, and poor stock, which constitutes the bulk of these | receipts, 5 steadily accumulating. New Pota- ! toes are coming forward freely and jobbers are purchasing sparingly of old stock. Re- ceipts of new Red Onions were 636 sacks and prices had a further decline, §1 50 being the Puling price on the wharves. Australian yel- low were firmly held. Nearly all descriptions of miscellaneous vege- tables were in free supply and prices had but slight variation. -Asparagus was held steady by liberal purchasing for canaing account at { 4%5@8c per pound. Some very poor lots of | | green Asparagus cold down to §1 per box. | canners were also in the market for Peas nM: were cleaning up surplus stock at 85c per sack.

Yesterday's receipts were only 36 coops, but the market was overloaded with undesirable lots of old stock, whieh was hard to sell, al- though offered at lihe: 2l concessions. No West- ern came In and it i= not likely that there will be any more marketed this week. The quotations for game are omitted, as nearly all of the receipts came to hand ]n very bad condition.

Ducks, $6@b 50 6 50 for young; Butter, Cheese and Eggs. ; | Receipts of Butter are getting excessive, as { will be seen, but the market seems to be fng care of them, although the feeling | very weak. All dealers are carrying large stocks and reporg the market In poor shape for sellers. Cheese is getting demoralized and anything |.over Slyc is now especially choice. Close buy- ers will not pay this figure any longer, ex- cept to fill some particuiar demand. There is | far too much on the market. Most of the ranch Eggs are now seiling at 19¢ and some houses are no longer asking above this figure. There are still sales at 20c, however, but this figure s the extreme top of the market.
