q. l.. Green n Co.'s report on cotton fu-
lures SAYS: "rhe break OF l69lS points on
contracts to-day, while not remarkable as
fluctuations have gone OF late. was somewhat
significant in the absence OF any important
recovery, and the bull movement appears to
have received at least a temporary check.
Liberal trading at LiverpOOl was undoubtedly
the most demOralizing influence, especially rs
selling there 10 known to have been done
principally by recent longs, but the condition
OF the yarn market was poor, and all evil
dences indicate that the consumption has
only In Questionable degree been expanded
by The late advance. The close was a trlfe
steader, but only because there appeared to
be an Indifferent feeling generally, and the
bulls improved the opportunity to add few
points"

CHICAGO. March 9.-As one of the market
re views puts it tonight, "atfalrs on Change
appear to be fast degenerating into conditions
when a market review for one dav will answer
very well for the next, with possibly some few
changes in fractions" The wheat market
closed in the latest trading 1t practically yes
terday's figures, and the price for May deliv-
cry remains at virtually the same figure at
which 1t was quoted six weeks ago, having
varied IN that time less than Sc in either di-
recton: trading was almost entirely local to
day. and speculation was phenOmenally light;
cables came in a little stronger, under which
impulse May advanced to S53kc fell of to
S43Ic, ana ClObeu on the regular DOArQ at
So i-l6c: in tue afternoon the feeling was
again easy, May closing at S4Isc. Very little
interest was developed in either corn or oats,
and the market ruled easy for both. Mess
pork was again heavy and a shade lower.
