which was the closing figure at p. IN In
the afternoon the bears continued 10 nam mer
prices. and considerable long property was
unloaded. The price of May dropped to S4szc,
or ia under the highest figures OF last week.
The feeling became quite DedIlSH lONaIu bHS
close of trading, and the market finished at
nearly inside prices. Corn was held up Irmly
early in the session, May delivery touching
1870, but when the weakness III wheat began
to assert itself the option declined to 1914 ana
closed at that price bid. Receipts are only
moderate, but the shipping demand continues
only moderate. Oats ruled quiet and easy,
declining a fraction and closing at inside
figures. Provisions ruled strong most or the
session. May pork advanced To $ll 20, Will
considerable trading at that figure, but Zen
