Green 4 Co.'S report on cotton futures says
1t has been regular Saturday market, and
results are unmportant, with no really new
features of significant character brought out.
Inc larger operators did not appear to be
taking any special interest in the situation, and
business was confined almost wholly to the set
thing mp of small deals on which there appeared
danger, If allowed to go over unprotected. The
tone was little slack, as rule, under tanner
Liverpool advices and little fuller receipts
than expected, with final rates 1Gb2 points off
and matters very duh all around"

CHICAGO, Jan. 2l.-The usual Saturday quiet
prevailed at the opening of the Board to-day,
| though provisions gave some evidence of
strength. Wheat was stupidity dull from the
start to the finish. May wheat opened at a shade
| off at S316c There was a general evening up by
| scalpers during the session, but prices remained
| between S3dgS314c, and MAJ closed at S31Sc.
| Corn was quiet at the start, but did not remain
| so long May opened at $3.50. Several promi-
| nent houses began picking up all of the corn
that was offered around the opening, and this
| was rushed up to $3.50. and in a very short
| time Corn continued active and firm all
| through the session, and there was practically
| no reaction from the early advance, although
| there was some selling at top figures, May
| closed at 53Nc Oats started in with good
| brisk trade in May option, and there was an ad.
vance of 16Gl58c over yesterday closing prices.
| The frmness was due to sympathy with the
| corn market, and liberal buying by prominent
| operator. In provisions considerable interest
was manifested. aud the feeling very firm
in general way. Speculative offerings were
not very large while the local and outside de-
mand was fairly active. Shorts purchased
moderately. May pork opened at S14 So and ad-
vanced PIC sold to S14 6219GG14 to, reacted to
S14 So and closed at $14 60. Lard and ribs were
moderately active. Nav lard sold at s. 6213@
