WHEAT DROPS FAST
Rain and Snow Send Down
the Price at Chicago.

Short Covering Causes a Rally, but
an Outbreak of Fresh Selling
Carrlea Values Sown
Faster Than Before.
CHICAGO, April S. Spring rain and snow
acted like magic today In sending down
the price of wheat. Crop prospect, wera
believed toVtoave bean vastly Improved by
th timely moisture on fields million, of
acre. In extent. Weakness prevailed at
tha dose, which was S4 to lo under Satur
day, last figure. The decline stimulated
much coveting by shorts, the handsome
profits Immediately In sight proving irre
sistible, with the election holiday tomorrow
making a delay a double risk. The re
sult was a sharp rally, but Xresh selling
on the part of several large speculator
overturned th market worse than before.
A contributing reason for the general weak
ness appeared In a decline at Liverpool not
withstanding a material decrease of th to
tal stocks at that port. Although a little
more cash business was don hero today
and the Baltimore dispatches told of ex
ports, th market In the end howed only
slight reaction from th bottom figure
reached. The range for May extended from
H"vte8Vio to 85,v,c with the close 4o
off at USc.
In corn, th wheat slump ofTset the ef
fect of wet weather and light receipts. May
fluctuated between 46 Vic and 4TVa4TV4c
closing a shade down at 46ic. Cash grade
were firm on account of small offerings.
Ko. t yellow finished at 4SV,&46c
Oats were sustained by an Idea that tha
corner In the cereal at 'Winnipeg had not
been disrupted. High and low limits for
May turned out to be 10 Vic and 39c, with
final sales 230c. a net gain of a shade.
Ths lowest records of th season were
touched by ail futures actively the subject
of trad In provisions. The outcome left
pork le to 52V40 diminished In cost, lard
