Future in and Provisions. | | CHICAGO, . 8.—A practical denial of yesterday's sensational report of damage electrolytic, { ! to | the wheat crop in Argentina cayged an easy | ning_in_wheat here. May was off e to | e at §1 13 to §1 18%. Those who doubted | the authenticity of yesterday's damage reports recelved mych encouragement from the com- | parative weakness of the wheat market at Liverpool, where prices were barely -le-dy.! notwithstanding the 2c advance here the pre- | vious day. On the initial break shorts covered quite freely and there was fair buying by the prominent bull interests. A a result May ad- | vanced to $1 13%. Persistent selling of pit traders. however, scon caused another decline, which carried May down to $1 12%. Toward ! the middle of the session sentiment became decidedly_bullish and the market advanced sharply. May selling up to $1 14. One cause | of the rally was a partial-confirmagion by a | Well-known British crop statistician of the poor crops of Argentina. Another factor part- | ly responsible for the upturn was a muerlnl{ decrease in the world’s available Mcklfl} Gecrease of 2,624.000 bushels, compared with | an increase of 593,000 bushels, the correspond- | ing time a year ago. Small primary receipts also gave additional impetus to the advance | in prices. Late in the day the market became | weak on_liberal profit taking. Final quota- | tions on May were at §1 13%. | The corn market was under strong selling sure throughout the entire day. May ozened a shade to 14@ic lower at 44% 4 and sold off to 44%c, closing at 44%@ | 44 ! % & | Tiquidation of the December deliverv by | commission houses was a feature of to-day's | trading in oats.
