AUSTRALIAN REPORTS GIVE BEAlfc LEAD ON WHEAT MARKET

CHICAGO, May 23. Announcement that important purchases of wheat for the United States were being made in Australia tended today to increase bearish sentiment here, significence being attached to an accompanying explanation that Japanese vessels were relieving the scarcity of ocean tonnage available for shipments-to San Francisco or other American Pacific coast cities.. Trade here though was so small as to be nearly negligible. Opening prices, which ranged from the same as yesterday's finish to 4 cents lower, with July at $2.28 and Sept. at $2.04 to $2.05, were followed by moderate declines all around. Warmer weather and predictions- of a large Increase of ' planted acreage gave a downward swing to the corn market.' After opening unchanged te e higher, prices underwent a general eag to well, below yesterday's close. Excellent crop reports weakened quotations on oats. Pit traders pressed the selling side. Selling of lard by houses with foreign connections had a depressing effect on. provisions. Export shipments were said to be difficult owing to ves- . eel-room being monopolized by grain.
