CHICAGO, Feb. 24.-The leading articles in
the markets to-day were slightly on the down
turn, and. while fairly acuve, could not be
Cdlicu much utkteE imam easy ON the regular
board, the absence OF any visible supply
statement was in measure disappointing,
though from careful unofficial estimates it Is
SAID there viii be but little change from last
figures; the greatest activity, and likewise
edsIness, was IN the provision list. Wheat
opened rather higher. but the conditions were
unsettled m that the visible supply statement
was delayed nearly daY, with no prospect OF
being posted until evening; local trading
worked prices up &c. from which they later
reacted sc, little, except moderate scalping
FfsHu
prices broke badly, and the market closed PC
under the top prices Of the day. Corn
lightly traded IN and assumed tine same gen
eral tone as wheat, advancing sc early, then
weakening, and closing at the bottom; No. ,
cash was called nOmlnally 3s54 ,G3SI2c; the
close of the morning session was easy and
featUreless. Oats continue but little better
than nominal at 5I45l1sc Tor seller May, 10
which future all speculative trading is con-
fined. Provisions opened colo points lower,
with large attendance of local traders, all
disposed to hammer the market and more dis
posed to sell stun than on Saturday, under
the belief that values were bound to drop any
way. the conditions being such that no amount
of local support could sustain prices: 1uctua-
lions in pork were more irregular, being 25c,
the general tone of the market being easy but
more active.
