CHICAGO. Msy 24. May wheat today
rose to within c of th dollar mark- Ner
vous covering ot about 400.000 bushels on
orders said to have com largely from St.
Louis shorts, put up tha price nearly 2o
a bushel to 09 c Tho dose, howover, was
easy, at a net gain of lo. A break tn tb
market at Minneapolis bsd a good deal
V do with causing, aa easy feeling hero dur
ing the last part of the day. The reason
wss an unconfirmed report that a consider
able amount of bard Winter wheat was to
bo shipped up there from Chicago. Pre
vious to this episode, the bulls appeared
to have the market hero at their mercy. Th
My strength hsd Induced considerable buy
ing of other month Tho foreign exchanges
were firm and there were report of crop
losses in Kansas snd Nebraska and of - a
probable extremely short yield in ums
l.oma an Texas. Proflt-taktnr thought and
the news from Minneapolis led to a rather
sharp setback. Between the evening and
the .in. i.iIt nuiiid from 87 tt 87 Ta c to

loss of S c Th May option proved
more stubborn, final sales bslng at Sbo, a

turned out to be 341j and 34 a 34 Sc. with
the clcse Sc net higher, at S4SC
A healthy cash demand hardened tho mar
