CHICAGO. Jan. 2S-The grain markets
were weak to- day and the provision mar
kets strong. Compared with SATURDAYS
closing the price of wheat this evening
fell Oft Sc, corn l2 09sc and oats and rye
each lac. Pork and lard are each 25c up
and ribs .l5c. Business in all departments
was dull. Wheat started shade higher on
some good buying by prominent local OPP
orators and the destruction of st. Louis
elevator with one million bushels of
wheat. 1t was expected that the
st. Louis event would result In
a certain decrease in the visible. but
later 1t was found that the burnt grain
would be included in the stocks-not bav-
ing been destroyed until the statistics had
been made up-and there were other indi-
some increase 1t was also reported that
the antl-option bill would come TO a vote
tomorrow, and was pretty sure to pass.
This helped to cause weakness. and result
ed in decline. Schwartz-Dupee' and
Partridge led the selling. The opening
was about the same as Saturdays closing,
easy and then declined &c. held steady at
the decline, and closed within a shade of
the bottom.
Corn opened rather firm and sold up q
fraction. but Bryant, SohwartZ-Dupee and
other leading houses began to sell. and
prices had quite q slump. The big receipts
expected Tomorrow were a depressing
factor, but the chief weakness came from
reports OF on increased supply of railway
cars and an ex pected freer movement on
that account from country stations.
The oats market W as inclined to be firm,
and acted so until corn began to break. 1t
then weakened and declined lao from the
high point of the day.
Provisions were remarkably strong on
only moderate amount of business. The
receipts of hogs were only p, 900 head. COM
pared with estimates of $1,000, and for to-
morrow only $1,000 are looked for. The
offerings were exceedingly light and it
took very little buying to give the market
boost. Estimated receipts for tomorrow
are: Wheat. $40 cars; corn. $40 cars; oats,
33S cars; hogs. 2l.Ovo. The leading futures
