back, but now it is conceded positively

CHICAGO, February 8. - Yesterday
weakness in wheat was continued to-day,
and values struck the lowest point so far
recorded on the last crop The chief de-
messing cause for some time has been the
discouraging situation abroad. Stocks in
Great Britain have been large and the ten

weeks The trading in this market for
some days has been largely OF scalpinR
character. The market today was rather
slow and decidedly lower. There was little
in the way Of news that was encouraging
TO holders and much that was the reverse.
Gables were lower and weak, domestic
markets heavy, the receipts in the north
west liberal and the export clearances
moderate. Confidence seems TO be wholly
none. and this, with exhausted margins and
the vicious courage displayed by the bears,
