CHICAGO, February 2S.-The storm which
prevailed here all yesterday and through.
out the night has now ceased, a light driz.
zling snow being all that remains otit. It's
effects are painfully evident, as all traffic
In the city Ia very slow and difficult, and
all incoming trains on the roads are from
two to five hours late. At o'clock "a
mails were duo at the postoifice and but
two OF them had arrived.
The storm on the lake yesterday, &C.
Cording to an old lake captain, was the se.
verest experinCed for years. At the crib
the wind blew at the rate OF 03l miles per
hour and the Ice whized by at the rate oil
seven miles an hour.
The storm struck the crib about eight
O'Clock yesterday morning. There was
great danger that the port. holes would be.
come obstruCted with the Ice and cut of
the city's water supply, but gang otmen
working with the water up 10 their Waists,
have managed to keep them clear. A gen.
tleman who arrived here from Clinton,
Iowa, said the train passed through some
sections OF the prairie where the little farm
houses were almost half submerged by the
water, and that miles OF railroad tracks
we're covered. The Western Union wires
here are In very good shape considering
the violence and persistence Of the storm.
Several poles Ia the city were blown
down, but are being rapidly put up again,
and telegraph communication, though
slow, is not here interrupted.

end Of February. The next iortnights
weather therefore Is momentous, as the
sowing must be deferred II the weather is
bad. Young wheats have recovered from
the effects oil tho recent storm and are in u
generally healthy condition. The 1881
wheat crop is decidedly favorable. Dry
samples are still scarce. Improved flour
is In slow conanmptive demand at un.
changed rates. Altogether trade In bread
stufTs Is dull and slow. Foreign wheat in
steady demand, and some descriptions OF
improved American red winter and Aus.
tralian pence higher.
The supply Is chiefly from America,
Hungary and India; very moderate trade
and fractional advance Ia the result /;
spot trade slow and quiet. For barley the
demand is improved but prices are un.
changed. Mailing and grading samples
dull the same may be said OF foreign, hut
the demand Ia unimproved. Oats firm but
not higher; old scarce and sold readily;
foreign quiet and unchanged cargo trade
very dull. Maize very quiet and in short
supply but unchanged.
