CHICAGO. April e.-Extreme weakness char.
acterized the opening of speculative trading.
Wheat star cd one cent lower than it closed
Saturday. Corn and oats were almost equally
imp, anu PROVISIONS were also pressed IOr sale
at the same time. Considerable recovery took
place, bus not until late in the session, after
shorts had had abundant opportunities to cover
their sales OF Saturday and the early part of the
day. There was a repetition in the wheat pit at
the start of the scene enacted Saturday n orn-
ing. No one as ed over 81 OF for May wheat
as against 81 0S5s at the close of the previous
session. but buyers were extremely scarce until
it could be bought at 81 O9I5. The prime NOV.
inR cause for the break was very generally the
belief among local exporters that the late bull
campaign was abandoned for the present and
reaction from the recent advance was naturally
to be looked for. The heaviest of the local op-
orators were of one accord as regards the inn
mediate future of the Market and sold with
freedom. Finally the scare which pervaded
the bull ranks was transferred to the other
party, and an advance of INC cents was
brought about in the course of the last hours
trading. The whole of tho recovery did not
stick, but May wheat closed at 81 041s.
The corn market was very heavy at the open
ing. and trading was extremely irregular. Sales
all the way from 81 cents TO $50 took plnce at
the same time The weakness continued until
wheat turnedup, but recovery in corn did not
respond to the full advance made by the other
cereals. May sold off to 65ss cents and re.
covered to 669S cents, which was the ruling
price at the close.
The weakness in oats was apparent Saturday,
and slumpy condition of the market at the
opening frightened the longs, who proceeded to
unloal. A decline of 1SmNc in the sam pie
market helped the decline infue ices. The

strength being due to tho decrease in the
visible supply. The market for h x products
was easier and prices lower. Commission
houses appear to have good deal for sale on
account of country holders, but fair demand
sprung up at the decline, which
took place in the course of the day.
The receipts of 5000 hogs and lower prices re-
ported from the yards caused the market to
open off considerably, ID it had no reaction TO
speak of until the receipts of cabegrams advis-
ing favorable action by the German government

That created a lively sensation ard quic recov-

lower for pork and ~ cents lower for lard, but
