fllOllS OF PEACE RESULT ON BREAK IN WHEAT PAIGES

CHICAGO, May 10 Sharp break? in the prices of wheat took place today owing to the circulation of vague rumors of impending peace developments. An official Kansas report showing improved crop conditions in the eastern and southern portions of the state tended also to. weaken the market. Trading was on an extremely restricted scale, as commission houses were demanding that speculators put up almost prohibitive margins,, fifty cents a bushel or more. Opening quotations which ranged from one cent decline to 94c advance, with May at $3.10 and July at $2.46 to $2.46, were followed by a general fall, as much as 6 cents in some cases, but then something of a reaction. - Corn eased off in sympatch with wheat. The volume of business was small. After opening c down to !4 up, the market underwent a decided sag all around and later recovered in part. Favorable weather and crop reports

pulled down oats. Selling, however was not of an aggressive sort.

Higher prices on hogs gave firmness

to provisions. Sellers were scarce.
