Tliere Is Jttle In the market beyond buying on every break and Helling out on bulges, Chicago, July 5.—Wheat—There was quite a sharp break due to large re ceipts and fine weather in the north- we«L In fact weather conditions were perfect all over and local sentiment was made bearish to some extent, by the fact that country acceptances were quite large, with July sold against them. Support appeared, however, with shorts covering to some extent, al though the northwest sold through one set of houses and bought through an other. There were roports of black rust from various sections of Minne sota and North Dakota. At the close aentlment was somewhat' mixed, but one thins I* noticeable—that la, around present prices bears run very quickly whenever tho market shows any dis position to advance. Com—There waa i fine weather and car lota showing over the estimate, although trade was not very extensive. The Fatten house waa buyers of May, while local operators and ths crowd bought September, and the market displayed a stronger than many In the trade looked for. Oats—Trade waa rather small at tha start, but heavy selling appeared In the September kind oh looal account In a realizing way, due to improved crop prospects In many localities. Offerings were rather liberal for deferred ship ment, and the closing was easy, with proapeevts of prices working a little lower. Provisions—Very little trad« with packers on both aides of ribs, and while considerable bullish talk was heard, due to the advance In hogs, there waa not much disposition shows to tako on long stuff. New York, July I.—Abort covering was the chief sustaining Hictor of the etocls market today, following tho movement sterted Tursdey end continued tVedneedoy ebroad, the demand from the bears waa ex tended until the list gained In a number of stocks over 6 points from tlio low level. Tho market la entitled to ft fulilier rally, but the bear party Is not disposed to give up without k struggle. It will only retreat as the powers seuT buying ordera Into the market, and they do not appear to with to follow up buying by bidding aggressively aa yet. The technical condition of the market la very good, and ire think the abort Interrst Is very bulky. Its nervous* neea wee shown by the action of the mar ket abroad yesterday and here today.
