there. Every night since the Indians
became hostile a man has been on
guard, and at all times every gun on the
premises has been loaded. No violence
has, however, been offered. The only
danger that has threatened has been the
exhaustion OF the supplies. Provisions

CHICAGO, Feb. 3.-The eemi-revivsl of speculative
trade in grain that with the opening of March
was OF short duration. While the temporary bulge
continued there activity. but with the reaction
and decline in prices came dullness. About every
thing the floor opened this morning, at trife bet
ter prices Fridays close The tendency of every
thing uniformly slowly downward and the open
ing sales at the best figures of the day: Wheat
for May started at S0a4c sold at to SO7sc, and
noonhour went off TO S03s0S LQc. There was moth
ing particularly discouragng IN the situation; in fac
it Is regarded strong present prices by the majority
of the trade. but still there was narrow
range of prices. May remained at SO12c during the
greater part of the session and finally closed at that
figure. White corn led upward on Thursday and Fri
day. and it led in the decline early to-day The open
ing quotations higher than the closing last night
but they the best of the day and the first two
hours carried prices down about 1ac The volume of
trading quite good, but concentrated that lit
tie outside attention attracted May opened l4c
higher, at 522sc, declined to 521ec, and closed
52ssc. There was very light speculative trade in
oats, with nothing but the smallest fluctuations May
oats opened 81 SIC, sold down ec and closed at
81 SIC. In the provision trade there little
stir than any of the former days of the week. and
easier turn in grain encouraged the old bear ele-
ment to enter the market, and around the opening
prices depressed by comparatively free offerings
Later there better showing of strength yet at
the Adjournment pork showed decline for the day of
1Oc and lard and short ribs .O5c Trading; while the
bears" were selling was quite fair, but after the
first hour when they generally withdraw, business
was spasmodic and slow. May pork sold from
$14.O7l9 early. down to $13.92la, and closed at
$1395 May lard sold from 7.75c down TO 1857 19c,
ard closed at 7.7Oe May short ribs sold from
732l2c down to and closed 81 7.25c. The leading
futures ranged as follows:
