WHEAT PRICES WERE MUCH HARDER TODAY
CHICAGO. June 23. Wheat prices tended to harden today, influenced by leports of improvement in conditions a, to the number of vessels available for shipments to Europe. Transactions in' future deliveries, however, were confined to the September option. The market for that month opened lc high er at $1.85 and later rose to $1.90. Unfavorable weather hoisted the corn market.' Besides, country offerings to arrive were light and seaboa demand was again apparent. , After opening c to.IHe up. prices scored a moderate further advance.'. Oats sympathised with the.' rise in other cereals. Provisions continued to respond to the better cash demand for meats.
