CHICAGO, May 1.-The day was one
Of strong activity on Change, accompanied
by marked depression in values, owing to
the growing feeling that the Anglo Russian
dispute is nearing a peaceful solution
There was nothing to guide traders as to
the temper of the foreign markets, owing to
the fact that it was bank holiday in Lon
don and hence no open market for consols
but the tenor of public and private cables
was little more pacific and this was i'm
mediately reflected in the markets here
Wheat opened &c under close yesterday
and at one time sold off &c additional and
closed for the day l!c under yesterday
Corn, following the same course, accom-
panied BY active trading, was at its weakest
soon after the opening and there was a
steady feeling at slight decliRe for the re.
mainder of the session. Oats were fairly
active, but somewhat easier, closing Ia
&c under yesterday. There was weak
telling in provisions, mess pork declining
20 cents while lard ruled q shade lower
One OF the features on Change was the trad
ing in small lots Of one thousand bushels Of
grain and 80 barrels of pork under the new
rules permitting these transactions, and an
active trade was reported. Flour firm and
unchanged. Wheat-Active but weaker
