GRAIN AT CHIcAGo.-At the opening Of navi-
CATION, there was in store here II 900 bushels
of wheat, and 10000 bushels Of OATS including
the cargo of 10000 bushels Of the brig Abiah,
which was cleared last year, but wintered here.
This amount, together with that since received
by canal and including April 18th sums up as
follows
Wheat, bu.. :. l06,350 Oats, bu. -. 100, 500
Corn, ....l56,459 Barley, bu.. 1910
The entire shipments to the lower lakes, since
the 29th ult., including the cargo of the Abiah
referred to, are as follows:
Wheat, bu.. 80, 100 Oats, bu.. -. .62, 800
Corn, 80. .90,94S Barley, 49,. none.
According to this, there are now apparently
here for shipment, "a, $50 bu. of wheat 65,5ll
do corn, 6S, l43 do oats, and 1910 do barleyA-in
all 2l2,444 bushels This however, is far from
the mark considerable part Of the wheat
has been taken by the mills; the distillers and
lumbermen bought largely of the corn; brewers
have taken all Of the barley and to supply city
consumption and lumber dealers, nearly all of
the balance of the oats has been taken. We
are confident there are not now 100000 bushels
of all descriptions of grain in store here for ship
ment.
The opening of the Straits of Macinsc, an
nounced on Monday by telegraph from Detroit,
has created a better feeling among produce deal
ers, and corn and oats are now firm, and the lat
ter show an advancing tendency for shipping
The only drawback at present is the delay in
opening the Erie Canal until the Goth. How
ever, reports from Buffalo lead us 10 believe
that the amount of produce there on the OPEN
ing of the canal will not be large, and conse-
quenty very high freights need not be expect
ed from Buffalo to New York. And as the
amount Of produce in store on Lake Erie is not
rs large as it was last season, no accumulation
is expected beyond the ability of the canal to
carry forward. Chicago Tribune, 18th
