Future Grain and Provisions, CHICAGO, May 24.—Following higher prices at Liverpool the wheat market here opened firm_initizl quotations on July being up %e to Ye at 9:@00%e. Ta addition to the | higher cables a continuation of unfavorable weather in. the Northwest also affected the market. Weather In the Southwest, however. was entirely Iavorabie to the bears, clear skies and a rise in temperature being pre- csly the ccnditions needed by the fall-sown cop. A lack of any definite damage re- ports inspired cansiderabie confidence in shorts who sold quite freely, with the wesult that the market was decidediy nervous during the first two hours. After selling at 00%@d0l5c July declined to &9%c. Sentiment, howev. gradually became more consistently bullish as fresh reports of damaze to the wpriig wheat crop were received. Sharp advances at Minneapolis and Duluth gave emphasis to the crop damage advices. While news from the Southwest was conflicting the preponder- ance of reports still claimed considerable dem. age In that section. The sensational bulge in May corn contributed materially to late strength in_wheat. A few minutes before the close July wheat toucned the highest polnt of the session. sales belng made at 908, @A0%e. The market closed practically at the top. %@7%e higher for July at 90%@90%e, A sensational jump of D%c in the price of May corn furnished fresh evidence of the congested condition of the market for that delivery. The scarcity of offerings was the principal reason for ths sharp upturn. = A moderate demand from shorts forced the price of May up from 58c_ the opening figure, to 6lc. Toward noon the demand became ex- tremely active, resulting in a quick advance to G5c. Near the close a revival of the ag- gressive demand from shorts caused a final upward bound to 67c.
