CHICAGO, ILL.,, March 23.-The lowest prica
yetfor The wheat crop wag reached to-day. In
lie PIT az the close, the nnal ngureS were at
the bottomfoc tne session; the feeling was very
nervous. The remarkable struggle for long
time made the outcome uncertain. In tine De-
ginning the bears had the upper hand, but
alter hand Struggle were overmaStered, only
to once more regain control with O vengeance.

1ncreSe OF confidence
Later Bradstreet reported a decrease in the
available supply east OF the Rockies OF E0O,O0o
bushels and $50 600 bushels decrease on the
Pacific coast, and the feeling strengthened.

an advance at Berlin and much strength was
restored Bearish news from St Louis
checked the boom. st Louis showed remark
able heayineSs and reported that foreign

local bears turned TIE market down. Late
cables were also disappointing to buyers, and
during the last hour there was general dump
ing oflocal holdings.

Otis acquired considerable strength early,
from corn, but lost It in the slump OF the last
hour.
In the provision market q frmer feeling vas
noticeable, but owing TO the extreme depres-
sion OF wheat there was reaction and the de-
cline left the market lower,
