terest to note in tO-day's trading. In the alb
sence of news from outside the general air IN
the trading pits was one Of llstlessness. In
wheat very little outside business was trans
acted, and local trading was on a limited
scale. The receipts were little larger. ana
foreign advices quoted a dull, weak feeling.
The market opened a shade easier, advanced
nc. eased off &c. rallied sc, huctuated, and
closed on the regular Doaru 12c unueI yeste ester
day At the afternoon session prices again

Corn averaged lower. The receipts were
much desire shown to sell early. but the later
| offerings were more liberal. The iact that

rain last night was deemed favorable TO the
bears. The market opened 900 lower,
