CHICAGO Ian. 23.-There was light business
in wheat to-day AT times the demand was
fair. at others limited 50 that the aggregate
trading was less than yesterday. The feeling
too, was rather easier, but the market was held
within narrow limits, good buying at inside
figures and rather free offerings at the outside
preventing tine market from passing either
| limit The opening was about 1sc lower and
declined about 1sOI4c more, advanced &c
again, eased off to inside prices, and the closing
was about ss@15c lower than yesterday. A
moderate business was transacted in corn. the
| bulk of which consisted in changing futures to
more deferred deliveries. July III particular
being wanted. and ruled stronger. There was
| marked increase in trading in oats and stronger
| feeling developed, which resulted in higher
| range of prices. Offerings for future delivery
were conspicuously light most of the session,
and the demand from several large operators
were quite urgent. May delivery received most
! attention and prices advanced $50 but was al
| maintained until the close. Only moderate
| trade transacted in hog products. Local
operators were not inclined to do much business
| on either side of the market, and orders from
| outside parties were somewhat limited. The
| general surroundings of the trade were rather
| more favorable for better prices, but there was
some disposition manifested by manufacturers
to sell for future delivery, consequently the i'm
provement in prices was slight. Prices eXhib-
tied very little change, in some cases slightly
