REVIEW OF THE CHICAGO MARKET.
CHICAGO. April ls.-The wheat
market was full Of excitement again to-
day, with heavy transactions throughout
the entire session. The opening WAS
very weak, with prices of nearly Sc.
from the closing last night, with evil
dence on the part Of some Of the heavy
bears to pound the market. The sud-
den reaction was due To the advance in
British csnsols and the feeling that the
Afghan wsr-cloud might not prove so
black as it had been painted. The low
est figures Of the day we're carrent at
the opening, however, and from tho
lowest point the market advanced ] &c.,
but fell back, and the final closing Of
the day was 20. under yesterday. Ex-
traordinary strength was developed in
corn, options being advanced nearly lc.
over the best figure Of yesterday, and
closed sAic. higher. Oats ruled strong,
the market closing &. higher. provi-
sisns ruled somewhat lower, with
fairly active trade.
