CHICAGO EXCHANGE.
Chicago, June 20.—Yesterday's decline
In wheat prices In this market did not
seem ,to affect foreign mtrket* end the
failure of Liverpool to respond to that
decline wae perhaps the sll Important
argument in favor of higher price* here
today. The opeulng was buoyant and
the first hour's truliog waa of a very
exciting cliaracter. The firmness re
ceded addition vigor from reports of
damaged crops In the spring wheat re
gion. The government's weekly weath
er and crop bulletin reported small
grains permanently Injured by the lab'
drought, while prvate dispatches fully
confirmed the statement In many In-
stancea and added color to the report.
The extraordinary strength of oats im
parted some of Its vicinity to wheat.
The activity after the first hour suf
fered soma abatement, but the strength
waa lasting and the close, although at
some recession from ths outside, waa
with a full measure of firmness. July
wheat opened st 69 6-4 to 69 5-6. sold
between 60 7-8 and 56 6-8. cloalng at 60.
a net gain of 7-8 of a cent for the day.
Cash wheal was quoiabiy i cent per
bushel higher than yesterday.
Corn—Obtained its strength from US
environments today. Wheat w*a strong
nnd oau were excited and the influence
of the two was calculated to bely corn.
The cash demand waa also good, and
therefore exerted a beneficial effect In
the future*. July opened at 41 6-8 to
41 3-4, sold between 42 5-8 and 41 6-6,
closing at 42 1-3, a net gain of 7-3 of a
cent. Cash ebrn waa 1 to 1 1-4 cents
per bushel higher.
The oat market furnished the sensa
tion of tho floor today. Juns at one
time Wta quoted 2 3-4 cents higher than
yesterday’* close end July 4 1-4 cents
' higher than the tost figures of that
™ day. Sample oats were 3 to t cent*
'JV higher than yesterday. There to no
manipulation or dirtier now, merely a
congestion brought about by the slim
stocks of contract oau In Chicago end
elsewhere and the prospects of a not
too bountiful yield from the growing
crop. Tho distant dsllvertas ware high
er in sympathy with the nearer opera
tions, but the advance waa mot as great.
A practical Illustration of tha Incorrect
ness of the assertion made by the Sup-
Dorters of the anti-option bill that tb*
short seller depresses prices waa fur
nished by the action of that gentlemtn
today. He pushed values higher e«
quickly that It was with difficulty that
be could keep in. pace. June closed
t 1-3 cents higher than yesterday, July
g 3-4 cents higher. September showed
a giln of 1 1-3 cents.
Provisions.—There was very little vi
tality to either the trade or prices of
products today. An excess of 6,604 hogs
bver the estimated number In the run
at the yatd* and a decline m value for
the animal caused a weak start. Near
the dose packers were good fellers and
prices closed 3 1-2 cents under yester
day for July pork. 6 cents lower fer
July lard and 7 1-2 cents for July ribs.
There was a moderately good cash de
mand.
