REVIEW or THE CHICAGO MARKET.
CHICAGO, April There was .
fair degree Of activity in ell the mar
kets on Change to-day, with the lead
ing interest in wheat. There were
signs Of weakness at the opening, due
TO the peaceful tenor Of foreign dis
patches and the marked frmness in
consols, which was also supplemented
by an easy feeling in the foreign grain
markets. There was . decrease in the
amount Of grain, which was used Is a
bull argument, and ~ throughout the
ses, ion bad-crop reports continued to
cou o in from soalhWestsrly points,
nun, bers Of which were very discour-
aging 10 tone, ~ market spened Ic.
