REVIEW OF THE CHICAGO MARKns.
CHICAGO. April 23.--Tbs speoalA-
tive fever did not run so high to-day.
Trading in all commodities was quictsr
than has been the rule previously Tor
several weeks. This was due largely
30 the fact that the news from Londoa
and St. Petersburg Was not 10 any
sense satisfactory a. indicating whether
the Powers are detevminedly bent on
war or not. Opinions were flashed
over the cables, but these were easily
obtainable on tins side OF the water, SO
that operators paid very little attention
TO them. They are now waiting for
actual results, and until m absolute
turn Of affairs is very clearly outlined
II is claimed speculation will hang FIRE.
A. the course Of the markets is ex-
pected to hinge to great extent
upon the outcome Of affairs abroad.
In the mean time trading is pur-
sued in a very conservative way.
Foreign adyices quoted q strong feeling
in the London, Liverpool, and PARIS
grain markets. and generally higher
prices. British consOls also ruled
lower. but there appeared TO be con-
siderable desire to realize, and n good
deal Of long wheat was offered. There
was 3 gradual decline Of lie. from
opening prices. which was aided some
what by an advance IN consols. Later
there was q better inquiry on rumors
Of large freight engagements, bat the
market sold off again, fluctuated. and
closed &c. under yesterday. The re
ceipts Of corn were little larger, but
speculation Jagged and prices showed
little .baDge, May being weak and june
and July somewhat higher. Shipping
inquiry was moderate, but outside
tradingwas smaller than usual. Trading
was quiet in oats. with no essential
change in prices. Provisions were
weaker. Mess-pork declined l0al5c.,
closing at the inside.
