CHICAGO PRODUCE MARKET.
CHICAGO. April lit was a day OF
weakness and decline all over the Boaru
OF Trade floor to-day, with wheat Leading.
Ii all came about through the government
report At the close a net loss or Z4c;
in the May option had been RECORDED ,,, an no
| the day There was no excitement as
accompaniment to the decline; values
simply sagged off to where they wsre
minds of the traders. Those who had the
holiness TO sell yesterday gatnereu III
| their profits this morning, ana tnlr
| buying was the only support That prices
| had. III Unused no Tccupeiat.'S SINE

| Provisions were in accord with every
| thing else and prices gave way 10 selling;
| A weak market at the yards, with nDerai
| runs OF animals at all points, served az
| a basis for an easy start. When Wneat
| showed such a weak undertone there was
| renewed selling OF the product. AS tns
| final point was carried an absence OF SUP
| mort became apparent, and the pressure
| az offerings forced the market to the
| lowest point OF the day. There was a
| fairly good cash demand. The domestic
| markets were lower. while the foreign
| markets were firm. May pork closed
| s7i.c. lower: May lard l71sc. lower, and
| ala,, riba nc lower.
