CHICAGO, Jan. 23-The strength of
yesterday was not apparent in any of to-days
markets, and, after the first general equaliz!ng
In the wheat pit, early in the day things were
very quiet. May wheat started in at Sole, in
spite of the efforts of several strong parties, who
| attempted, through holding it up on the curb, to
start it at 86sc. The object, seemingly. in Civ
ing the market good start was apparent when
the session opened, for these people Immediately
began to offer large lots from all sides
of the pit From Sole, May sold
down to S54c, where buying checked
the market for short time, and large influx
of outside orders coming in at this juncture, sent
was caused by reports of big export demand at
New York. Later advices dwindled the reports
down to the chartering of three boat-loads, and
prices dropped down to 855c, where the market
opened firm. with May at 4lc, and
this figure was even bettered &c Immediately
| after the opening. but the big drop in wheat
together with heavy sales and the heavy
receipts, pulled the figure down to 4Oac, where it
remained quiet In the oats crowd, the course
OF the market was much the same as in corn
May opened at 32sc, sold up to 3244c and then
down to 3lsc. In provisions there was little
trading May pork opened at $11.25, and in the
course of the day sold down to $11 Is. but the
