CHICAGO GRAIN CLOSE IS HIGHER Sharp Bulge in Wheat Influences Market. Hi/ I iiitnl /’< ss CHICAGO, May 20. —Grains closed higher on the Chicago Board of Trade today, all feeling the*influence of the sharp bulge in wheat. May wheat dosed from 3’4 to 3 % ceitis higher than Wednesday, and the deferred deliveries were also sharply higher, but May dominated the floor and will continue to do so until the end of the month. The remarkably strong tone of Liverpool and the outside markets, as well as the improved milling and export demands, together with further short covering, were responsible for the pronounced rise in wheat levels. Corn closed fractionally higher, having followed the ternd of wheat, but eased toward the close. Planting conditions are reported to be excellent. Oats had another dull *\o. and closed irregular, .with no features of its own. Provisions closed irregular.
