CHICAGO, March 1.-THE crop killers
working with undated energy, the firm
cables, another cold wave prediction and a
few brokers buying both May and July for
the CLIQUE, all combined to boost wheat to-
day The advance from the lowest price
of the day was 1al sc. The markes closed
steady, with net gain Of sc over last
night The shorts covered freely. 1t is
not alone the crop conditions which have
scared the shorts, but the attitude and sup
posed strength Of the cliques contributes
materially to other causes. In the corn
crowd Ream was seller, where yesterday
he was a most active bidder. 1t shows
a decline Of Il per cent. There was little
trade in oats Provisions, there was little
interest shown in anything but lard, which
is a shade higher. Flour quiet and un-
