| CHICAGO. Feb. 4.--The cold weather and easier
cables caused. at the opening, a eneral desire
| market yesterday. The bulk of the tradin :
was done at 99JscQ$1 90. An attempt OF some
of the local shorts to cover their previous sales
was perceived by the local scalpers and they
| bid the price up. There was quick advance TO
81 O0ss, a reaction to 81 00ls and these fiuctua-
tions were followed by a bulge, and 81 Obs was

| breath. The price was around 81 00AGD1 003A
when dispatch from San Francisco reported
good general rains in California and Oregon.
These rains extingushed the bullish confiagra
| ton. then raging in the wheat pit, and the ad-
| vance was all wiped out and May wheat sod
| down to 1890 and closed at 1890, or 40 lower
than it rested yesterday. Light receipts were
sufficient in their influence to keep corn from
declining, The opening price for May was
| $3.50, and there was a sale at 54c. The lowest
| price was hS5kc and the closing at 53Ac Oats
| opened dull and continued so until the bulge in
| VIII at, when the minor cereals showed slight
| advance. Trading was only fair, however at q
| range Of sc. The provision market was weak
at the start, and May pork was soon selling at
$40 09IS, though $40 10 was paid at the opening.
| Business was rather quiet, with packers selling
on hard spots and covering shorts on the de.
cline.
