Chicago Markets In Wheat Corn And Hog Prices Jump
Chicago markets showed wheat climbing to record highs with May at 13.10 a bushel and July near 13.25 as corn rallied to 44s, oats advanced, and pork and ribs led gains in futures while cash oats and barley showed steady to firm quotes. Market reports note heavy selling pressure for hogs but strong demand from shorts supported pork futures, with cattle receipts at 6,000 and lambs mixed in Minneapolis trading. Reports from Lincoln to London include Volhynia fortress evacuations and a historic hotel destroyed by fire, while political news in London notes Asquith appointing Joseph Pease as postmaster general.
