REVIEW OF TUE CHICAGO MARHHr.
CHICAGO, March ll.-Values were
improved in very marked degree on

higher than yesterday. This was due

ruled steady early in the day IN sym
pathy with the early feeling OF strength
elsewhere, bus an early advance Of t..
was only hali-sustamcd. Provisions
opened firm and steady and generally
higher, especially in pork. There wss
an advance OF re. on this aud &c. -

sources was soon satisfied, and values
