WHEAT MARKET IS AFFECTED BY REPORT
CHICAGO, May 31. Excellent crop reports had a decided bearish effect today on the wheat market. According to one authority, Texas and Oklahoma have the, finest crops ever produced in those states. Opening prices, which ranged from to 9 cents lower, with July at $1.94 to $2.00, were followed by reactions from the extreme bottom figures and comparative steadiness at to 3c under Tuesday's close. Corn developed notable strength as a result of reports that the growing crop was being adversely influenced by two much rain and too little warth. Besides, the rains were expected to delay the movement of old corn to market. After opening 4c off to one cent advance, prices rose sharply all around. Oats hardened In value with corn. Field advices, however were promising, and gains were only slight. Higher quotations on hogs and corn gave some firmness to provisions. Demand, though, was not urgent
