CHICAGO. May lg.-Very few features of in
terest were developed in the trading on
Change to-day. and nothing sensational; the
Transactions both in wheat and corn were on
moderate scale, and the early feeling was
one OF nrmness, but became easier later IN
the day and both cereals closed somewhat un-
der the closing figures OF yesterday. Trading
in wheat was mostly local: the visible supply
showed decrease of 100000 bushels; the
weather was cold and unreasonable; New
y ork and St. Louis were quoted strong and
| higher, and Liverpool was quiet but steady.
Corn, led by the rise in wheat, advanced easi-
| ly, partially in sympathy; crop advices con-
tinue unfaVorable; influenced by q decrease
of l,6S0,o00 bushels and the light stock in store
the "shorts" in corn were anxious to cover,
stimulated somewhat by fears of manipula-
tons; the receipts were smaller than had
been anticipated, and foreign markets were
| lower; the market closed in the afternoon
about the same as Yesterday. Speculation in
oats was light but the feeling was firmer and
the market closed generally higher. Provi-
slons ruled firm and a shade higher.
Flour unchanged. Wheat opened stronger,
| but closed 80 lower than yesterday; regular
