Chicago, Jan. lS.-Ihere was quite healthy
opening In wheat to day, and at no time dur
ing the session did prices go below the reg
ular close of Wednesday. The opening was
1s@4c higher than yesterdays close, eased
of 3s44c, reacted and sold up 5sG%c, became
easy again and the close was &c higher than
yesterday. Corn-ThiS market showed con
tinued tirmness throughout the session. The
first trades to-day were at an advance Of hc
over yesterdays close. Prices then declined
1sQ54c, rallied $Q14ca eased of some. and at
the close net gain OF &c was
recorded for the day. In oats, there was a
very fair business transacted. Prices were
&c higher than yesterdays close at one time,
but part Of the advance was lost and last
figures showed net gain OF &c for the day.
PrOvislons-There was a demoraliZed hog
market early to-day and the feeling of de-
preston was communicated to provisions
When supplementary reports were received
from the yards, quoting gain equal to the
amount OF the early loss in values, product
responded and prices advanced. Packers
bought quietly. Shorts endeavored to do so
too, but as a rule, were compelled to bid for
the stuff. The proposed issue of bonds by the
government incidentally lent a tone OF firm
ness to the market as did also the Cincinnati
Price Currents report of an increase in the
packing for the week of 100000, over the cor
responding day OF year ago, May pork
closed 755c higher than yesterday, May lard
sc higher and May ribs sc higher.
