CHICAGO May2-The war feeling on Change
appeared to have very generally collapsed; at
least it was very sensibly lessened at the open
ing of trading as was illustrated in the extreme
desire of some of the purchasers of the two pre-
ceding days to unload. The advance in consols
and Russian securities emphasized this feeling.
in the session, and after that a stronger feeling
prevailed on all the cereals, and the closing was
well up to the closing quotations of yesterday.
In wheat, the crop news continues unsatisfac-
tory, which fact contributed towards sustaining
the market, though but little attention has been
paid to the subject in the face of the war news.
Receipts continued small, aud another large de-
crease in the visible supply is counted upon.
The market closed about &c under yesterday,
though at one time it was a cent lower. Corn
was weak early, but recovered all of the decline
and closed higher than yesterday, the May OPP
ton showing the greatest strength. Oats ruled
steady. with a fair demand. Provisions were
generally weak and lower.
Flour was quiet and unchanged.
Wheat was fairly active and the feeling un-
settled, owing to the pacific tenor OF the cable
news. The market opened 1014c lower, de-
cined &c additional, rose lie on renewal of war
rumors fuctuated and closed &c under yester-
day Sales ranged: May, 8Ss 089sc, closed at
