CHICAGO, February LIS y. Nc.
Z. Redford. 6south T,ceiffh street: Dear
Sir.--The markets are stronger and
gradually hardening. While but little
can be said in favor Of much advance
in wheat, the general condition Of the
country shows marked Improvement
iron-mills starting up, stocks higher,
and other Indications OF better times.
Cold weather now interfcrcs with
trade more than anything else.
Corn much more active and firm,
closing &c. Il. for May. 1t is still
cheap, and now that speculation has
started is liable to 60 considerably
higher.
Provisions dull and steady, the trade
being slow TO buy at the advance, hav-
ing generally expected a decline to sl3
for May pork, which is not now likely
to come. closing sl3.35 May pork,
s7.25 May lard, 1880 May ribs. There
is 10 weakness in anything.
