CHICAGO, May 7.-Dullness was the feature
in all the markets to-day under all sorts OF
bearish news, including lower cables, bearish
crop reports and an increase in passage.
In whest, the opening trades showed L01skc
decline and grsduellv sold down 5k0gTsc more,
rallied 4c, declined 1&c more and crossed with
July lsac lower tnan on Saturday. With but
few exceptions the news was bearish. Outside
markets were wesk, New York especially hav-
iHg many selling orders in the market. July
finished but 1se from the bottom figures of the
day.
In corn there was very little animation, with
the trade practically all lower and fluctuations
confined within n 80 limit. Tns advertency of
wheat and the favorable weather seemed to
create u beariah sentiment but selling was not
large. The closing prices were near the bot
tom.
In oats there was fair trade and a weaker
feeling. the offerings being. ample for present
requirements OF shorts, and prices, after open
Ing steady, rec saad &c for May and June and
closed easy at about the inside figures.

with scarcely any trading, the pit being al
most deserted. II was claimed by some of the
