Chicago.
CHICAGO, May 7.-Trading on Change to-
day was on more restricted scale than has
been witnessed in the two or three weeks
preceding, but the prevalent tone was one
of strength and closing quotations were
about the best figures of tie day. The ad
vance is attributed to the cold wave, almost
Unprecedented in its intensity for this sea
son of the year, and the continuation OF bad
crop reports. Foreign sdvices quoted wheat
steady and firm, while the amount on pass
age showed a reaction. Flour-Dull and
unchanged. Wheat-Fairly active; market
opened s@sc higher, influenced by cold
weather and reported storms in the West, &C
companied by bad crop reports. Market
